Girlfriend of man who laughed after glass attack 'couldn't love anyone more'

The girlfriend of a man who glassed a stranger in a nightclub said she will "always and forever" be by his side.

Lee McGuiness, 21, was seen "laughing" and "joking" in McDonalds just moments after the attack which left 18-year-old Jake Hopwood suffering from nightmares and sleepless nights.

Liverpool Crown Court heard on Wednesday, March 2, that the two strangers were in The Establishment, Wigan, on New Year's Eve in 2019 and Mr Hopwood was filming as the club was permanently closing the next day.
