SALE MAN JAILED FOR BRUTAL ASSAULT ON PREGNANT EX-GIRLFRIEND
The article details the violent and abusive behavior of Jordan Burton, a 22-year-old man from Sale, who attacked his pregnant ex-girlfriend multiple times despite knowing she was pregnant with his child.
Burton assaulted her on at least three occasions, including throwing a hoover at her six times, causing multiple bruises, and hitting her with a piece of wood resulting in bleeding.
The court heard that after she reported him to the police, he continued abusive messaging and harassment, including ringing her over 100 times from prison and threatening revenge if she did not retract her statement.
Burton, who has prior convictions and was under a community order at the time, sent malicious messages, told her to die, threatened her and her family, and tried to manipulate her into lying in court.
In his victim personal statement, the woman expressed her feelings of worthlessness and explained that she felt the only way to protect her unborn daughter was to escape from him.
Burton was sentenced to three years and one month in prison after pleading guilty to multiple charges, including assault, sending malicious communications, and perverting the course of justice.
An indefinite restraining order was also issued against him.
