Thug Clint Jackson has been jailed after he strangled and beat up his girlfriend in her own home.
The 42-year-old struck his then-partner while her children were sleeping upstairs.
Stoke-on-Trent Crown Court heard he also called her 'fat' and 'ugly'.
The defendant, of Russell Street, Leek, has been locked up for 14 months and handed a three-year restraining order.
Prosecutor Brian Williams explained that Jackson and the complainant had a relationship starting January 2025 and had been arguing, especially if he had been drinking.
On the night of April 10 into April 11, after calling her names, she went to bed and he stayed on the sofa downstairs.
During the altercation, he shouted and swore loudly, and she tried to quieten him as her two children were asleep upstairs.
Jackson put his right arm around her neck and applied pressure before releasing and punching her in the face.
She called the police, and he was arrested.
Jackson pleaded guilty to intentional strangulation and assault occasioning actual bodily harm.
The judge, Graeme Smith, stated that there were no permanent injuries and no hospital treatment was needed, and the children were not said to witness the incident.
Jackson, a plasterer, expressed remorse and is currently incarcerated until January 2027, when his license expires.
