A YOUNG woman mouthed "help" to McDonald's staff after a bogus taxi driver squeezed her thigh. The 23-year-old, who cannot be named, was "terrified" after Joseph Prior, an unlicenced taxi driver, touched her leg in his Ford Focus on a quiet street. He then took her to the McDonald's drive-thru and offered her cocaine.

But the Liverpool Echo reports the victim mouthed "help" three times to the McDonald's employee at the drive-thru window and police were called.

Prior, aged 40, was jailed today for 18 months and handed a five-year Criminal Behaviour Order with restrictions including a ban on him working as or pretending to be a taxi driver.

As Prior was sent down, his brother said "wrong that you know, on every f***ing level", then screamed as he left Liverpool Crown Court.

Sentencing the thug, Judge Rachel Smith said Prior "misled" the woman and "touched her inappropriately".

"Members of the public have the right to be safe from harm when they choose to use a taxi," she added.


not much of a sentence

Maybe, maybe not.

The sentence would have been greater if the sexual assault had been more serious, but thankfully for the victim is wasn't.
