MAN ABUSED FORMER PARTNERS AND TRIED TO SUFFOCATE ONE
A man from Cheshire was found guilty of subjecting two former partners to sustained abuse, with accusations including multiple attempts to strangle one of the women.Jason Lamb, aged 27, was convicted in Chester Crown Court of two counts of controlling and coercive behavior, three counts of deliberate strangulation, and one count of intentional suffocation.
His convictions also included criminal damage, animal cruelty, dangerous driving, driving while disqualified, driving uninsured, and possession of a weapon.
According to court reports, Lamb, residing in Celandine Court, Lostock Gralam, Northwich, subjected his ex-partners to a campaign of control and abuse.
One victim recounted that he had tried to strangle her on several occasions.
Both women, who had relationships with Lamb from February 2023 to August 2025, described how he regularly dictated who they could see or communicate with, prevented them from leaving their homes, and falsely accused them of infidelity.
Lamb also forced one woman to leave her job because he was unhappy with her coworkers.
Following this period of abuse, both women reported Lamb, leading to his arrest and subsequent charges.
On August 27, 2025, Lamb appeared before Warrington Magistrates’ Court and was granted conditional bail.
However, after a further incident reported by one of his victims, he was re-arrested.
On March 18, Lamb was sentenced to seven and a half years in prison for his actions.
