A Henry County man pleaded guilty Monday to stabbing and beating a 73-year-old woman inside a McDonough senior assisted living center last year, officials said.
Gregory Stillwell Jr., 37, was sentenced to 40 years with 20 years to serve in state prison, Assistant District Attorney Megan Matteucci said in a news release.
Stillwell forced his way into the Grier Manor Senior Living Center in McDonough on April 27, 2016, and attacked Icilda Walters.
Walters told the judge Monday that Stillwell knocked on her door and asked to use her phone before the attack.
“He then forced his way inside and grabbed a knife from the victim’s kitchen,” Matteucci said in the release. “After the attack, the victim crawled to the door and cried out for help.”
