Two men have been caged for a "vicious" machete attack in broad daylight on a father who was seen carrying a child on his shoulders moments earlier.
Mr Webley suffered large, gaping wounds to his head, legs and arm in the assault which fractured his skull and left him with permanent scarring. Top news stories today “It was only at a very late stage that he became aware that something of a violent nature may happen. There was no suggestion that Mr Jess took part in the assault.
She said the father of two had applied for a move to another prison. She added that he acknowledged that his actions had helped others to commit violence and he apologised for what he had done and expressed remorse and regret. For their involvement in “this grave crime” he told them there was no appropriate alternative to a custodial sentence in each case.
