2:57Now PlayingA mother who held a woman captive as a slave inside her "squalid" home for 25 years has been sentenced to 13 years in prison.
Amanda Wixon, 56, forced the woman - now in her 40s - to shave her hair, regularly beat her if she didn't complete jobs around the home, and made her live off "scraps" of food.
It's also understood that while being held, Wixon, a mother of 10, stole more than £100,000 in benefits from the victim.
