A mum who thrust an electric drill into a disabled woman’s head is among those to have been jailed in Greater Manchester this week.
Also locked up was a predatory paedophile who kidnapped and sexually assaulted a six-year-old girl; a cowardly thug who repeatedly assaulted his ex; and a hapless burglar who was spotted wearing an ‘odd choice of clothing’.
Prison sentences are handed down to the worst offenders each week at our region's courts. And Manchester Evening News reporters are on hand to cover the most serious cases.
