Two English women and a male teen have been convicted for the abduction and assault of a disabled woman, Daily Mail reported Sunday.
Elisha Robinson and Jodie Colvin, both 23, along with a 17-year-old male, were sentenced for allegedly kidnapping and assaulting a 21-year-old woman with learning difficulties. The ordeal, described by Judge Andrew Shaw as a “terrible, terrifying and horrific attack,” lasted six hours and involved heinous acts of physical and psychological abuse, according to Daily Mail.
The court learned that Robinson and Colvin were reportedly under the influence of cocaine as they lured the victim to a bungalow. She was allegedly subjected to unspeakable violence, including sexual assault, being forced to consume excrement, and having bleach and boiling water poured over her, the outlet reported. The teenage accomplice, while not directly participating in the physical abuse, reportedly egged the women on to inflict maximum pain on the victim.
The women, who reportedly exchanged texts planning the assault, were each sentenced to 12 years and nine months in prison. The male teenager, 16 at the time of the crime, received six years in youth detention, Daily Mail noted.

The victim met her assailants under the assumption that they would watch a movie together. After the attack, the victim sought help from a local couple, whom Judge Shaw commended, recommending a £500 (approx. $630) reward for their assistance, Daily Mail reported.
“I really struggle to get my head around how a human being could treat another human being the way I was treated,” the victim said in a statement, per Mirror. “And why did it happen to me? I can barely sleep as I keep reliving the whole thing and if I do sleep, I wake up terrified from recurring nightmares.”
“This was a horrific, calculated and vicious attack over a number of hours. The three defendants subjected her to a hugely traumatic event and none of us can imagine how truly awful that experience must have been for her,” Detective Sergeant Tom Cole of Norfolk Police, who led the investigation, said after the hearing, Mirror reported.
