A drugged up bully strangled and beat up his girlfriend before throwing a bike at her and her friend. The thug assaulted both of the women as he turned the house upside down in the search for drugs.
Jamie John, 24, attacked his partner of six years at her home in Caerau, Bridgend, in the early hours of February 13 after he had been out to watch the rugby. When he came home at 5am he was extremely intoxicated having drunk alcohol and taken cocaine, Valium, cannabis and speed.
He repeatedly slapped his girlfriend before pulling her hair and strangling her on two occasions before slapping her friend who had come to her aid. He then threw a bike at the two women before fleeing when police arrived.
