Barry Robert Baker Jr., 29, was sentenced Wednesday for assaulting a cerebral palsy sufferer, 22, back in May

An attacker who imitated a cerebral palsy sufferer then socked him across the face has been jailed for up to six years.

Barry Robert Baker Jr., 29, who had previously admitted to robbing veterans' graves, sobbed in court Wednesday as he received three to six years for the sickening May 10 assault against an innocent man, 22.

The attack happened outside a 7-Eleven convenience store in West Chester, Pennsylvania.

Baker pleaded guilty in September to assault and flight to avoid apprehension, which the state generally gives 'three and 14 months incarceration' for assault and 'six months probation' for flight, according to the Daily Local.

Judge William P. Mahon felt the harsher sentence was more than appropriate for Baker - who pleaded guilty in 2007 to robbing marked graves of veterans.

He also violated his probation back in 2015 after being convicted of theft from a motor vehicle.

During the two-and-a-half-hour meeting Wednesday, Mahon said in his 18 years on the bench, he'd 'never had someone misrepresent' him and 'be caught doing it' as horrendously as Baker.

'You are a bully. You are a predator. You are a coward. I have never had such tangible evidence of someone's moral compass being so askew,' Mahon went on to say.

Baker was filmed on surveillance at the time outside the convenience store mocking the young man as he was simply walking back to his vehicle.

Out of the blue, Baker approached him and sucker-punched him - then walked away without a flinch.

The heartbreaking attack happened to the victim, who the Daily Mail has chosen not to name, around 2.15am.

Baker said he was 'drunk' that night and claimed he mistook the man for another he got into an altercation with earlier

The man fell onto the hood of his car and could be seen gripping his face in pain.

Baker fled from police after the victim called for help. Eventually, he was tracked down and located at a hotel in Exton.

Chester County District Attorney Tom Hogan said at the time 'every decent citizen should be outraged' by the defendants repulsive actions.

'The victim is to be commended for keeping his cool and notifying the police,' Hogan told CBS's Pennsylvania affiliate KYW-TV.

Baker cried during his sentencing: 'I want my life back. This will affect me for the rest of my life. I just want a chance to rebuild it ... I want this behind me.'

His attorney, Thomas Purl, added his client is 'very remorseful' for the crimes.

Baker was apparently intoxicated at the time, and claimed he mistook the victim for a man he had gotten into an altercation with earlier that day.

'He doesn't go around hitting people. He's had a very traumatized time,' said Purl.

It seems the attacker grew up in a 'dysfunctional' home and lost his mother to a drug overdose.

Baker's father also suffered substance abuse throughout his life, Purl announced in court.

He now has one month to appeal to the sentence.

'I think the defendant has proven himself to be a menace to society,' Assistant District Attorney, Cynthia Morgan said of his maximum sentence.
