A convicted killer has admitted stealing from a vulnerable man and using his bank cards to buy takeaway food. The victim was returning from a night out to Pennywell Road in Bristol.
Bristol Crown Court heard he was struck from behind and fell to the ground. It was the Crown's case that Quanito Chudley then picked up the victim's wallet and phone and used bank cards to spend £93, which included food.
Chudley, 40, of Stapleton Road, pleaded guilty to theft and four frauds after the incident in May last year. In 2003 Chudley was jailed for six-and-a-half years for manslaughter and five-and-a-half for robbery after the mugging of a pensioner - for £5 - in Kingsdown who later died.
