Joshua Kendall is handed a life sentence for the attack at the Category C jail in February 2020.

Kendall attacked a prison officer at HMP Onley, on the Northamptonshire-Warwickshire border, in February 2020

The officer did not sustain any serious injuries, police said, but in a statement said: "I think about what happened all the time and how lucky I was that he didn't manage to hurt me physically more than he did."I didn't realise how much but when I drive to and from work now I have times during my commute that I feel as though I can't breathe."Following the assault Kendall was searched and found to have a further improvised weapon, police said.

"Violence of this nature, against those who work hard to maintain order within prisons, will not be tolerated."
