“Ann Cassidy was 81. Her loss has been felt physically and emotionally. No sentence I can pass will alleviate that.”

Pictured is Harrison Buckley, aged 24, of Pingles Crescent, at Thrybergh, Rotherham, who was sentenced at Sheffield Crown Court to 59 weeks of custody after he pleaded guilty to causing the death by careless driving of pedestrian Ann Cassidy on Park Lane, at Thrybergh, Rotherham, after a collision. He also admitted perverting the course of justice after he had persuaded his partner to claim she had been the driver of the vehicle.

The collision was initially deemed to have been a minor incident so Stokes was allowed to take her vehicle, according to Ms Marshall, but after Mrs Cassidy’s condition deteriorated she was taken to Rotherham District General Hospital where it was found she had suffered a fractured skull and bleeding on the brain and she died the day after the collision.

Buckley, who has two previous convictions for 10 offences, pleaded guilty to causing death by careless driving and to perverting the course of justice. Jordie Stokes, who has no previous convictions, pleaded guilty to perverting the course of justice.Mrs Cassidy’s widower Eric, who had gone to the scene of the collision to find his wife injured, said: “Ann was my life. We did everything together. I miss her so much.

“He roped his partner into this in the heat of the moment and he got her to say she was driving and he got her to take a breathalyser test. At the scene he had no idea how serious this was going to end up. By the time he was being interviewed by police a few days later he was full of remorse and full of apologies for the family.”Mr Barradell added Buckley has been struggling to cope after his brother had been involved in a car crash and had died in his arms.
