Horrified family realised gran, 99, was being raped by vile carer after setting up hidden cameras in her care home

A VILE care worker has been jailed after raping a 99-year-old woman in her own bedroom.

Phillip Carey carried out the sick attack as her family watched the horror unfold on hidden cameras, installed as they suspected she was being abused in the home.

He was caught sexually assaulting his vulnerable victim on a secret camera her family had installed in her room at the carehome in Blackpool, Lancs.

The family installed cameras after they became concerned for her welfare.

Carey pleaded guilty at Preston Crown Court, where he was jailed for life with a minimum of ten years.

Prosecutors said the victim's family became concerned when her behaviour suddenly changed.

She wouldn't allow physical contact and begged her relatives when they visited: "Don't leave me, they will hurt me".

The family installed a covert camera in her room to try to discover what was causing her so much distress.

But to their horror, they witnessed Carey enter the woman's room where raped and sexually assauted her on the live feed.

They immediately called police, who arrested Carey.
