A sick intruder almost killed a pregnant mum
after stabbing her belly when she told him she
was pregnant. Insane intruder, Nathaniel
Robinson ordered the victim to phone her
boyfriend so he could hear her screams and he
aimed the kitchen knife at her stomach when she
told him she was expecting a baby.
The 25-year-old victim, who would not be named,
grappled with the knifeman and almost bled to
death at the scene.
She survived along with her unborn child, a baby
boy, but said she was haunted by her three-
minute ordeal – and the reason for the
motiveless attack.
After bravely revealing a thick scar at the top of
her stomach and other wounds, she told the
Birmingham Mail:
“My boyfriend could hear my screams on
the other end of the line. “I pleaded with
Robinson to stop. I said: ‘Please don’t do
this, I’m pregnant’. “But then he started to
target my stomach. I grabbed the knife,
which is why I had hand injuries. He was
completely silent throughout."
Robinson struck at the victim’s home in Bournville
late on the evening of May 23.
Police were alerted by a neighbour who heard her
screams. But she was stabbed seven times,
suffering nine injuries.
The victim lost so much blood that, when a 999
operator urged her to apply pressure to the
wound, she replied: “Which one?”
She has since left that home to live somewhere
else, still fears for her safety and is battling with
the physical and psychological scars of the
attack.
Recalling her night of horror, the victim said
Robinson showed up at the flat and pulled out a
"very large knife" when she asked him to leave.
She said:
“He asked me to sit on the bed, call my
boyfriend and put him on loud speaker. “I
did as he asked and tilted the handset
towards him so he could talk, but he said
nothing.
“He lunged across and started to stab me
as soon as my partner picked up the phone.
“He was only in the house for a total of
three minutes – but it felt like an eternity.
“When he left I started to panic that he
would come back to finish me off. “I
dragged myself across the floor to get to
the front door to close it. “There was blood
everywhere.
“I called my mum, who lived nearby, and an
ambulance - I did not think I was going to
make it. “My neighbour started banging the
door and my mum had also arrived and
was screaming at the door. “But the 999
operator said not to open the door to
anybody until the police arrived.
“My neighbour had started to try to use a
crowbar to get inside. “Eventually the
police, my neighbour and the paramedics
got in along with my mum, sister and
partner. “It was very traumatic to hear my
mum and sister outside desperately trying
to get in.”
The victim was rushed to Birmingham’s Queen
Elizabeth Hospital , where her only thought was
for her baby, who is due next month.
She said:
“I had two operations to severe nerve
damage on a finger on my left hand and to
my knee. “The first wound was stabbed
down into my knee and all of my tendons
and ligaments were severed. “I had
minimum pain relief and just kept asking
about my baby. “I was awake during
surgery because of the anaesthetic and I
was terrified I would lose my baby. “I am
very lucky we both survived.”
Robinson, 25, of Bartley Green, admitted inflicting
Grievous Bodily Harm (GBH) with intent and
possession of a bladed article in October. He is
due to be sentenced later this week.
The victim bravely helped police investigating the
brutal crime by tracking Robinson down via social
media as she recovered in hospital.
She said:
“I really hope he is given a lengthy
sentence. “I have gone through all the
anger, the tears and the heartache and now
I want closure. “I hate the thought of him
serving a short sentence and coming out to
threaten me and my baby.
“I had to leave my old home because of a
fear he would send somebody else to finish
the job off. “He may be locked up at the
moment, but this has affected all aspects
of my life. “My scars are hyper-sensitive, I
struggle to stand and walk for long periods
and I have no sensation in my finger at all.
“I work with very vulnerable people and it
has been very difficult. “I also know I will
be very protective of my son when he
arrives and I react badly to anybody who
tries to touch my stomach. “I am angry a
man who stabbed me seven times with a
knife he brought to my house was not
convicted of attempted murder. “My baby
boy is due in January and I am hoping the
new year will mark a new start and a new
beginning."
