A Brooklyn baby-sitter raped and bludgeoned with a hammer yesterday identified a man still in the house as her attacker as her life slipped away, police sources said.
Cops, who had failed to enter the apartment on an earlier 911 run, found Sharlene Francis, 20, partially clothed in a pool of her own blood in a bedroom at the Stanley Ave. home yesterday morning. The baby-sitter, whose birthday was Friday, had been beaten savagely with a hammer.
The 2-year-old she was caring for was splattered with her baby-sitter's blood.

A drunk Brooklyn man stabbed and hammered to death a baby-sitting college student in front of her terrified 2-year-old niece yesterday, leaving the tot splattered in her young aunt's blood, sources said.
"Please, help me!" begged dying 21-year-old Charlene Francis to a 911 operator from the baby's blood-soaked bedroom at 1162 Stanley Ave. in East New York. Her confessed killer, Richard Thorne, who lives at the house with the child's grandmother, had fled to his bedroom after the predawn attack but then angrily stalked back into the baby's room after hearing his victim's desperate pleas, sources said.
He cut off the woman's frantic call but not before she managed to give the address, they said. Police arrived at the home, only to be greeted by silence despite calling and knocking, they said.
