This thug is called Kieran Hemsley. He has been described as a dangerous man but he is also a pathetic coward.
Hemsley put his former partner in hospital by punching her so hard she couldn't breathe.
He then continued his attack with blows to the heads and kicks to her crumpled body.
His victim spent days in hospital.
It now transpires he has a dark history of violence. He has now been jailed for eight years: bit.ly/3WYsMC6
