sentenced to nine years each for their part in the attack. They pleaded guilty on the basis that they did not take part in violence 'On occasion when I do go out I am still fearful of young men and stick close by my friends who I will be in constant phone contact with on my way home until I have the front door closed behind me. 'I now feel that as a mother I will never be able to protect my daughter as on that night I could not protect myself. 'Even though we have moved away from the area I still feel totally vulnerable and will live with this for the rest of my life. 'This is something that will not go away.' Describing her ordeal as 'life-changing', she said she now suffers panic attacks on a daily basis, is on medication for depression and has lost more than two stone in weight. 'I am going to seek counselling in order to regain my appetite as I am no longer eating properly,' she said. 'I even find it difficult to brush my teeth as I now have a gagging reflex to the effect of the toothbrush.' In his victim statement, her boyfriend said he lost his job following the attack and became 'extremely stressed' that his attackers could be anyone he passed in the street. 'The police investigation identified three people but there are still more of them and I don't know who these men are,' he said. He too was now on medication for depression, unwilling to go to his local victim support centre as it was in an area of which he was fearful. 'At the time I just felt like giving up,' he said. 'After this I began to try to get my life back on track and in September 2009 I moved away from the Brixton area. 'I am only now starting to feel better about things over a year later although I am still on medication for depression.' Gordon was caught because he left his DNA on a juice carton, the court was told. Robert Rabe, in mitigation for Gordon, said the victims had hoods placed over their heads during the incident and could not identify any of their attackers. So there was no evidence that Gordon committed any of the violence, he told the judge. Mr Rabe said: 'It could be possible that those who were committing the violence and those who planned it would be more cautious about leaving DNA.' Both Hall and Gelly pleaded guilty on the basis they did not carry out any of the violence, he told the court. At the age of 17 Gordon was jailed for four years by a judge at Wolverhampton Crown Court in January 1996 for a series of robberies and attempted robberies which were carried out over a 10-day period with a group of other men. In July 2000 Gordon was jailed by a judge at the Old Bailey for further eight years for a multiple stabbing of a so-called friend he accused of implicating him in a robbery of which he was acquitted. While on licence from prison in June 2006, Gordon was jailed for a further 18 months for drugs offences. Hall and Gelly were caught when their DNA was found on a cigarette butt left in the bedroom of the house, police said. Speaking about the case last November, Detective Inspector Mick Foote, of the Metropolitan Police's specialist crime directorate, said: 'Both victims were subjected to unnecessary physical violence in their own home. 'They were targeted for money and then assaulted over and over again, despite saying they had no money. 'Both victims have suffered a very traumatic event. However, I would like to reassure the public that such crimes are very rare.'

Killing animals that are vicious is okay. We should do the same for human trash such as this.
I agree. Usually, when an animal is vicious it is because they have been mistreated (meaning domesticated animals like dogs or cats for example). And sometimes diseases like rabies will make them vicious. Of course they have to be put down but you could feel sympathy for them, not for this human scum who are vicious because they enjoy it.
