Man who assaulted and threatened to kill former partner jailed for 16 months

A man who made threats to kill his former partner and assaulted her in her home has been jailed for 16 months.

Judge Crowe said the couple had previously had domestic issues. She said the aggravating factors in this case were that first the incident was a prolonged one with an intimate partner and that four days later, the man again threatened the woman in her own home and caused criminal damage while there was a child present.

The court heard that four days later, on February 16th, the man returned to the home and pushed his way in. Once again, he called her a “whore” and made threats to kill her. The defendant grabbed an iPhone from the woman and smashed it. The woman’s child was also present in the house at this time.
