JAILED | Man jailed for terrifying armed home raid in Totnes
A violent offender has been jailed for three years and nine months for two acts of extreme violence committed four years apart.
Frankie Wall, 22, of no fixed abode, but previously of Totnes, was sentenced at Plymouth Crown Court on Tuesday 13 January after previously pleading guilty to affray and robbery.
The most recent of the offences took place on 26 April 2025 in Totnes.
On the night in question, Wall and two others entered a property.
Once inside, they pinned the victim to his bed and assaulted him. Demands were made to know where any money was and the offenders eventually left with cash, a phone and tools.
During the incident Wall was armed with a screwdriver. The victim was left with facial injuries.
The court heard how several years prior on 4 April 2021, Wall was one of three offenders who attended Dartington Estate in Totnes in a black BMW.
At the estate, the three men violently attacked another male, kicking him in the face and using keys between the fingers to punch him.
The victim sustained a fractured jaw which required surgery.
Wall was sentenced to 16 months imprisonment to run concurrently for this offence.
Wall’s co-defendants received suspended prison sentences last year.
DCI Becky Davies, said: “We welcome the sentence given to Frankie Wall at Plymouth Crown Court.
“Wall launched two separate ferocious attacks on his victims, leaving them with significant facial damage.
“The time between the offences demonstrates that Wall was unable to leave such violent tendencies behind and that he remains a danger to others.
“We hope this sentence shows that such violence will not be tolerated in our community.”
