TWO care workers caught abusing a brain-damaged former footballer by secret cameras set up by his family have each been jailed for seven months.

Daniel Moran was routinely called "scummy lad" and "bastard" by Lynette Crook and Rita Page at the Priory Highbank Centre in Bury. 

Jailing the pair, Judge Timothy Clayson said: "Your duty was to care for him, to show him respect and kindness, to afford him dignity and to protect him: you chose instead to belittle and demean him.”

The alleged murder plot comes less than a week after Ann Maguire, 61, died following a classroom attack at Corpus Christi Catholic College in Leeds.

DISGRACED PR guru Max Clifford was blasted by a judge for his arrogance as he was jailed yesterday for eight years for a string of indecent assaults on four women.

Passing sentence at Southwark Crown Court today, Judge Anthony Leonard said his behaviour during the trial was “quite extraordinary and a further indication that you show no remorse."
