A violent thug who told his partner "God has presented me to batter you" and threatened to kill her son has been locked up for attacking her.
Christopher Jones already had a long record for violence when he turned his fists on the woman. Police were called to an ongoing domestic incident in Benwell, Newcastle, on Mary 2 this year and saw the victim crying and with fresh injuries, including a cut nose and grazed cheek.
She claimed she sustained them from falling up the stairs but CCTV revealed the truth of what happened. It showed him pursuing her and punching and pushing her, knocking her to the ground then dragging her back to the building and delivering a headbutt.
