Patient attacked retired female detective in hospital garden
Llanelli Star
|April 23, 2025
A 22-YEAR-OLD hospital patient has been jailed for punching a female retired detective 33 times in a hospital garden.
Joni Hartson, 22, launched a brutal attack on a former royal protection officer.
A court heard the pair were both patients on a hospital ward when Hartson lured Dawn Lloyd, 67, into the back garden after targeting her because of her age.
Prosecutor Alex Orndal said footage captured Hartson punching Miss Lloyd 33 times on October 18 last year, leaving her with a bleed on the brain.
Cardiff Crown Court heard Hartson later admitted: "I wish I had killed her."
Mr Orndal said: "It is estimated there was approximately 33 strikes by the defendant. Miss Lloyd is described as not doing anything other than raising her arms to protect herself in that footage."
