A woman beater who unleashed a 'nasty' attack on his ex-partner in Ilkeston has been jailed. During the incident, one of their young children begged: "Daddy, go away - please stop."
Derby Crown Court heard how Mark Burgin dragged the victim by her hair. He also punched and kneed her to the face and head time after time.
Part of the 42-year-old's assault was witnessed by the couple's young children as they sat in a car. And after she managed to get away from him, the defendant turned his attention to that vehicle - kicking the door and punching at the window telling the woman inside it: "Let me in. I am going to kill you."
