Thugs broke almost every bone in grandma’s face over son’s drug debt
A man has been found guilty of beating a wheelchair-bound grandmother so badly it almost broke every bone in her face.
Stephen Mortin, 23, hit Barbara Dransfield up to nine times with a baseball bat because her son owed him £100 for drugs money.
In reply, Judge Stuart Driver QC said to Mortin: ‘You are shaking your head but I’m nodding mine. You are going to prison for a very long time. I have grave concerns for you, you should fear the worst in custody.’Mortin, from Hyde, shook his head in Minshull Street crown court in Manchester as he was found guilty guilty of conspiracy to commit robbery and inflicting GBH.
Mrs Dransfield suffered a fractured skull and several facial fractures and bruising after she was hit repeatedly during a gang raid.
The attack left the grandmother on life support and in a coma for two weeks.
Liam O’Shaughnessy, 29, who was charged with conspiracy to commit robbery, was found not guilty and left the dock looking relieved.
In the build up to the assault last July, the grandmother’s son Daniel received a text saying: ‘Answer your phone, stop making it worse for yourself. You’re going to get yourself hurt badly. You have crossed the wrong guy.’
Another read ‘I will have the last laugh’ and then four days before the assault one read: ‘my guys off to your mam’s now’.
The court heard how Mrs Dransfield, who has a prosthetic leg, was woken up by a ‘terrific bang’ in the early hours of the morning and was confronted as she wheeled herself out of the bedroom to see what was going on.
The two men were wearing dark clothing and masks covering their faces and one was armed with a knife, the other with a baseball bat.
The retired barmaid, from Ashton-under-Lyne, was beaten and told to hand over money by one of the men whilst the other ransacked the house.
In an interview with police she said: ‘That’s all they wanted, money, money, money.
‘I kept saying I’ve got none.’
The two men eventually made off with fishing tackle belonging to the victim’s husband, Leonard, and tins containing a small amount of money.

Ghanaian Reggae musician Ekow Micah has stood his ground regarding his stance for smoking "wee". Micah referred to the Holy Bible and cited an instance where God smoked marijuana popularly known as "wee" In an interview with Akwasi Aboagye on Peace FM's "Entertainment Review", Ekow Micah said he smokes because the almighty God smoked. He quoted Psalm 18:7-8 to buttress his point. "The earth trembled and quaked, and the foundations of the mountains shook; they trembled because he was angry. Smoke rose from his nostrils; consuming fire came from his mouth, burning coals blazed out of it". This news comes after dancehall artist Samini admitted to also consuming the illegal narcotic in the comfort of his home. Ekow Micah was arrested, charged and put on trial for possessing illegal wee.

Asian Hornet A wheelchair-bound 87-year-old pensioner, Chieko Kikuchi, who was attacked by giant hornets in Japan and stung 150 times, has died. According to a firefighter, emergency workers stood by powerless to help her. A swarm of hornets swooped on Kikuchi as she was on her way back from her care centre in western Japan, accompanied by a helper. The helper called firefighters but they could not reach the woman immediately as the swarm around her was too thick and they had no protective equipment. After the ordeal, which lasted around 50 minutes, the woman was rushed to hospital but died the following day, the firefighter said. "It was an unusual operation for us," he admitted. The death occurred in mid-September but was only reported on Friday, making headline news on national bulletins.
