Career criminal caught on nanny cam brutally attacking woman loses appeal against life sentence

A New Jersey man sentenced to life in prison for a brutal home invasion caught on camera has been denied an appeal of his conviction.

Shawn Custis, 47, was convicted in 2016 for breaking into a New Jersey home and viciously beating a woman in front of her child, which was caught on nanny cam.

On Friday, the appellate court denied his appeal after the career criminal argued his sentencing was excessive.

His lengthy criminal record included 38 arrests and 17 felony convictions all before the 2013 home attack.
