A ‘brute and a bully’ who shoved his pregnant girlfriend down stairs and slammed her head into a wall ‘whooped’ as he was sentence to three years in prison. A court was told that Kieran Hilland, 22, carried out a campaign of terror for four months.
The Manchester Evening News reported that Hilland began a relationship with the woman and very quickly she was pregnant. The court was told that it turned violent with Hilland acting in an abusive way.
Bolton Crown Court was told he pushed her down a set of steps and lashed out in a row about her seeing an old male childhood friend. Juliet Berry, prosecuting, said the fact she was pregnant ‘didn’t interrupt the violence’.
