A frail pensioner was left traumatised when two women robbed him in a churchyard.
The 74-year-old said he had gone into the grounds of the church in Gateshead to look at ornaments when he encountered Kerrie O'Neil and Lisa Palmer.
A court heard O'Neil, who has 112 previous convictions, used force to steal £100 from the pensioner, while Palmer joined in near the end.
