A woman was so severely battered and left inches from death by "the man of her dreams" that she was unrecognisable to her own daughter.
Helen Procter and her family have released pictures of her horrific injuries to raise awareness of Clare's Law - which enables police to disclose information to a victim or potential victim of domestic abuse about their partner's previous offending - and to also reach out to other victims who currently feel trapped.
Hours before the photos were taken her family had no reason to believe her partner of two years, Daniel Burton, had a violent bone in his body, HullLive reports.
