'I've just t*****d my dad': Frustrated son snapped and attacked frail dad in drunken rage after months of caring for him in lockdown

A frustrated son who snapped and punched his dad after struggling to care for him during lockdown sent a guilt-stricken Facebook message to a friend afterwards, a court heard.

Civil engineer Shaun Jenner, 39, from Tameside, twice struck his dad, also called Shaun, in the face after a drunken argument, leaving him bloodied, bruised and with a broken cheekbone.

He told a pal afterwards: ''I've just t*****d my dad'' with a crying emoji before posting another message saying: ''He kicked off with me first though.'' He then posted a picture of the victim sat on his sofa with blood pouring from his wounds.
