An abusive husband who subjected his wife to a 'catalogue of cruelty' has been jailed for more than two years.
David Andrew Rees, 52, pleaded guilty to coercive and controlling behaviour in an intimate or family relationship and assault occasioning actual bodily harm. He was sentenced at Minshull Street Crown Court.
His reign of terror began from the day they were married 18 years ago when he accused his wife of infidelity after he saw her hugging her cousin to comfort him.
