Three cruel care home workers were brought to justice after being ‘clocked’ brutally abusing an elderly Alzheimer’s victim.
They were filmed dragging frail and terrified Joy Lewis, 71, out of bed by her wrists, refusing the diabetic OAP food and drink and ignoring her pleas to use the toilet.
Her three stunned daughters watched in horror as their sobbing mum’s nightmare unfolded on footage taken by a spy camera planted in her room – disguised as a clock.
Now they are calling for CCTV to be compulsory in all care homes after their mother’s abusers admitted charges of ill-treatment or neglect.
And they want tougher sentences too as the evil trio – Rebecca King, 32, Teresa Cutts, 50 and Joanne Hardstaff, 39 – walked away from court with suspended jail terms and community service orders.
