Man Convicted Of Assaulting Girlfriend That Would Not Steal TV

August 24, 2018

Patrick Hall was convicted 2018 by an Escambia County Jury of false imprisonment, aggravated battery with great bodily harm or with a deadly weapon, and domestic violence battery by strangulation.

On Thanksgiving Day 2016, the  Hall and his girlfriend went to Walmart where he demanded that she steal a TV.

When the victim did not steal a TV as directed, the Hall became upset. He drove her back home, but he did not let her exit the car for an hour. Once the he finally allowed the victim to exit the car, he followed her inside, demanded that she go to her room, take off her clothes, and lie face-down on the bed. When she complied as ordered, Hall strangled the  victim until she passed out.

Hall slapped the victim until she awoke, and he told her, “Not fair, you should feel it.” He whipped the victim’s back with a cellphone charging cord until she had large welts from the lashings.

Hall then placed the cord on the victim’s wrist and told her he was going to get his gun from the car. He threatened to kill her if she moved. He then left the residence with her keys and cellphone. After a short period of time, the victim climbed out of her window naked and dressed in her yard before knocking on her neighbor’s door for help. The neighbors called 911 when they saw the injuries to her back.

Circuit Judge Joel Boles scheduled sentencing for October 8. Hall faces a maximum of 30 years in state prison as a habitual felony offender. However, if Hall is  sentenced as a prison releasee reoffender, he also faces a minimum mandatory
sentence of 15 years in state prison.

Hall’s prior felony convictions include sale of cocaine, possession of cocaine, possession of marijuana, burglary, introducing contraband into a detention facility, escape and numerous driving while licenses suspended.

    “Habitual felony offender.” This career criminal needs a new profession. How about career inmate?
