An 82-year-old man was gagged, throttled and beaten unconscious in his home by two robbers.

At Leicester Crown Court yesterday, Wayne Brian Hurd and Stephen Lee Earl were both sentenced to seven years in prison for the horrific attack.

Sentencing, Recorder John Pini held up a photograph of the victim and said: "I don't know if you've seen the damage you've done to an 82-year-old man in his own home.The court heard the victim had been left too frightened to stay in his home of 14 years, and was now living with relatives.

"He had a towel put in his mouth and then wrapped around his neck and was forced to the ground and repeatedly struck.

"He's too terrified to go back home.

"You rendered him homeless and frightened."

The pair called at the victim's home in Hinckley, asking to buy tobacco. The pensioner, who knew Earl, went to get some from his bedroom.

Victoria Rose, prosecuting, said: "When he went in he was jumped on by Hurd and a struggle took place."

Hurd stuffed a towel into his mouth, but the victim tried to fight back. The towel was then placed around his throat.

"It was an attempt to strangle him," said Miss Rose.

The victim eventually managed to get his fingers under the noose so he could breathe. He was then repeatedly punched in the face.

Miss Rose said: "He was on the ground while punches were raining down. He lost consciousness while Hurd was assaulting him."

Earl searched the premises and £400 was taken from the victim's wallet.

After they fled, he managed to get up and call his son, who alerted the police.

The pensioner suffered multiple facial injuries and a large cut to the top of his head.

He also had a golf ball-sized swelling under his left eye and bruising.

Police officers who arrived at the scene said he was out of breath and visibly shaking.

"There was blood on the bed and blood splatters up the wall," said Miss Rose.

Hurd (38), of Laithwaite Close, Beaumont Leys, Leicester, and Earl (35), of The Grove, off Coventry Road, Hinckley, both admitted carrying out the robbery, which took place at 11am on August 12 this year.

When arrested, they accepted being at the pensioner's home but initially denied taking money or any violence, other than a push.

The court heard Earl's previous convictions included burglary and theft.

In 1998, he was jailed for four years for a street robbery when two victims were threatened with a broken bottle.

Hurd has previous convictions for assault.

Gary Short, mitigating for Earl, said his client was addicted to heroin and crack cocaine at the time of the robbery and that drugs were the "root cause" of the offence.

James Varley, for Hurd, also said that money for drugs was the reason.

In a letter to the court, Hurd described his actions as "a terrible crime".

Mr Varley said that by pleading guilty they had spared the victim the ordeal of giving evidence in court.

Both defendants were also said to have been addressing their drug problems while on remand in custody awaiting sentence.

I'm sure the residents of HMP's will give them a warm welcome!

So this the society we've now created where people like this exist and the reason for too many burglaries is down to the victims:

Victim Support brands burglar's letter 'a disgrace'

_56882747_letter.jpgPolice said the letter was not passed on to the burglar's victims

A charity caring for the victims of crime has said an abusive "restorative justice" letter written by a burglar to a family was "a disgrace".

West Yorkshire Police said the thief, who cannot be named, wrote the letter describing the family as "stupid".

Victim Support said the the letter went against the ethos of restorative justice where criminals address their behaviour with the victim.

Ch Insp Melanie Jones said the letter was not passed to the victims in Leeds.

The 16-year-old thief was recently given an intensive supervision order.

After seeing the letter, Javed Khan, the Chief Executive of Victim Support, said: "This is a disgraceful letter that shows a total lack of concern for the victim.

"It goes completely against the spirit of restorative justice, which many victims find extremely helpful in coming to terms with what they've been through and which can also have a positive effect in reforming offenders.

"It's a very good thing that the professionals involved intervened to stop this letter going to the victim."

'Understanding and remorse'A spokeswoman for the Ministry of Justice said the letter would have been written by the thief at the direction of the local probation staff running the youth offending team.

They would not have been responsible for the content of the document, only suggesting the boy should write to his victims.

The spokeswoman said: "Intensive supervision and surveillance (ISS) is a rigorous community sentence for young people, which includes an electronically monitored curfew and 25 hours per week of structured programmes to prevent offending.

"As part of ISS, youth offending teams often encourage young people to write a letter of apology to the victim.

"This is done under supervision and any letter which did not show suitable understanding or remorse, or was not wanted by the victim, would not be sent."

Ch Insp Jones of West Yorkshire Police said the decision was taken to release the letter, written as part of the order the thief was given, as a warning to householders to secure their properties.

In September it emerged that more than £1.3m was to be spent by Leeds City Council over four years to reduce the number of burglaries.

The city was criticised by the Audit Commission for its burglary levels in 2009-10.

Despite improvements in 2010-11 the city had 8,869 burglaries, the third highest rate in England and Wales.

In 2010, more than 1,600 individuals were arrested for one or more burglary offences.

But the figures for burglary were not distributed evenly across the city, with the biggest yearly increase (28%) experienced in Chapel Allerton.

Armley, Burmantofts and Richmond Hill also saw high increases in burglary.

West Yorkshire Police said half of all burglaries in the city were as a result of properties being insecure.

Forgive me if I'm wrong but it seems that sentences have become tougher since the current administration were elected?

Some of the sentences the rioters got earlier this year were long. And seven years for these two, although ridiculously short, seems longer than when the loony left were in power?

Quite rightly so too IMO.

That letter would be a very small minority. I know people involved in this type of thing and they say repeat offending has gone down when culprit meets victim. Is this not what society wants? Fewer people returning to jail? Look up all the successes then compare the two sides of the argument.

Ch Insp Melanie Jones said the letter was not passed to the victims in Leeds.

If this is genuine, the yob in question should have his bollocks removed and fed to his victim's dog. Then his social worker needs to explain how it isn't nice when you do things that harm others.

I'm almost as disgusted with the shocking quality of spelling and grammar as I am with the content.

That's not good, is it?

Nothing to do with that at all. The Executive and Judiciary are two independent branches. I'm not aware of an new sentencing guidelines, either.

Perhaps the courts are just realising they need to impose sentences that act as more of a deterrent.
