An 'animalistic' group of vigilantes battered, robbed and stripped naked a tourist before dragging him to a local pub after wrongly accusing him of being a paedophile.
Stephanie Jones, 29, and partner Jordan Davies, 28, are the only two members of the gang who were arrested and charged after refusing to tell police who else was involved in the brutal attack. They marched their victim from his caravan to the Sea Horse pub in Newquay, where he was then chucked out and left bleeding in the street before a female member of the gang kicked him in the face while laughing.
Police detained the two defendants a few days after the assaul, however it took authorities more than three years to charge them, a delay one of their advocates said "beggared belief" and which the judge at Swansea Crown Court described as "so egregious it is quite startling". The victim, a Lithuanian national living London, had visited west Wales in his camper van back in July, 2018.
