A group turned up at a woman’s home with weapons in the early hours of the morning after a ‘disagreement’ the previous night.
Rachel Whelan, 35, turned up at the victim’s home in Northern Moor, with Darren Lee, 39, David Ellis, 48, and another man, Bolton Crown Court heard. Whelan was holding a bottle, while one of the men was holding an axe, the court was told.
Summing up the case before passing sentence, the Honorary Recorder of Bolton Judge Martin Walsh said that the “terrifying” incident had followed a “disagreement” between Whelan and the victim at a social club. Mum-of-two Whelan had been “aggressive in drink” at the time, Judge Walsh said.
