Arrest: The defendant was arrested, interviewed, and prosecuted A WHITEHAVEN woman whose partner bit her finger and hit her on the head with a rock said the attack was like being tortured . A Carlisle Crown Court judge who saw photos of victim Angel Paris Jordan after the 10-minute attack described her injuries as horrific and said the images showed the fear and horror she had felt. In court, Scott Waddington, 46, admitted an assault causing actual bodily harm. The victim s ordeal began on May 29 last year when the couple were in a car and the defendant, of Duke Street, Whitehaven, became angry and began driving erratically.
TWO women teamed up and dished out “thuggish” violence to a victim who was punched and kicked in a busy Whitehaven street. Becky Watson, 32, and Cheryl Anne Parker, 40, were caught in the act as CCTV captured their broad daylight offending in front of stunned King Street shoppers at 2.40pm on January 27 last year. Both women recalled Angel Paris Jordan yelling verbal abuse and throwing a bottle while Parker asked four times for the pair to be left alone. But Watson and Parker then lost their temper, Carlisle Crown Court heard. “As Miss Jordan starts to walk away from the two defendants, Becky Watson takes hold of her by the arm and then starts to punch her head from behind,” said Holly Nelson, prosecuting.
