This lovely lady is my Aunt. You could not wish to meet a nicer,more gentle, person. Whoever comitted this terrible crime should feel very ashamed of themselves. Although no external injures were caused this was an elderly lady and i'm sure the memory will stay with her for the rest of her life.
GOD help you if this is what you do to get money to feed your filthy drug habits. God bless you Aunty hope you feel better soon.
