MACON, Ga. - A man was sentenced to 15 years in prison for severely beating his girlfriend's grandmother, pouring fire ants on her and stealing $300 and her car.
Pearsall Leroy Gerald, 19, was sentenced Monday after pleading guilty to aggravated assault and other charges.
Gerald told police he attacked the 62-year-old woman on June 12 because he hated her and because he needed money to pay off a debt to a drug dealer, prosecutor Elizabeth Bobbitt said. The victim was beaten with a 4-foot stick and kicked repeatedly in the face.
"Her face was not even recognizable," Bobbitt said. "It looked like raw meat."
