Bullying rapist 'Tank' tries to get out of jail by saying he was framed
A bullying rapist who subjected a vulnerable woman to a horrifying campaign of abuse has lost a bid to have his conviction overturned. Emmanuel Richards has also lost an appeal to have his 15 year prison sentence reduced.
The thug, nicknamed 'Tank', threw a phone at her and then punched her in her jaw, causing her permanent disfigurement to her face, and even pinned a sign on her front door saying she had chlamydia, the court heard. On one occasion he chased her round a flat with a machete and another time, he boiled a kettle of water and threatened to pour it over her.
"I get scared and intimidated around men. I now finally feel I have closure and feel safe now he is behind bars, but despite my efforts to feel safe in public I still don’t." The appeal also heard allegations that the victim had been paid £900 by a man to make the accusations in revenge for a previous relationship Richards was said to have had. This wasn't disclosed to the court, Ms Ashcroft said.
