JAMES CARLISLE FROM KILKEEL FACES MULTIPLE DOMESTIC ABUSE CHARGES INCLUDING ATTEMPTED MURDER

A 42-year-old man named James Carlisle has made an appearance in court to face serious allegations related to domestic abuse and violent conduct. Carlisle, who resides on Harbour Road in Kilkeel, is accused of a range of criminal acts that paint a disturbing picture of violence and intimidation.

Among the charges brought against him are attempts to murder a female individual, a grave accusation that underscores the severity of the case. In addition to this, Carlisle is charged with unlawfully and maliciously inflicting grievous bodily harm upon the same female victim. The allegations also include several other assaults, one of which is said to have resulted in actual bodily harm, further emphasizing the violent nature of his alleged actions.

Beyond the physical violence, Carlisle faces two counts of witness intimidation. The first involves an alleged threat to kill a male individual, which is believed to have been made to prevent cooperation with an ongoing investigation. The second charge pertains to an incident where Carlisle is accused of making a threatening gesture resembling a gun towards a female, an act intended to intimidate and cause fear. Both of these intimidation charges are linked to his knowledge that the individuals involved were assisting law enforcement and that his actions aimed to obstruct justice.

These allegations highlight a pattern of violent and threatening behavior, raising serious concerns about the safety of the victims and the integrity of the ongoing investigation. Carlisle's court appearance marks a significant step in addressing these serious accusations, which are now under judicial review.
