A thug who coercively controlled and repeatedly assaulted his partner should not be entitled to an appeal, a domestic abuse survivor has claimed.
In a 20-month relationship, Daniel Kane, 53, stubbed a cigarette out on his victim’s foot, cut her with a pizza slicer, headbutted her while she was recovering from nasal surgery and stamped on her arm causing multiple fractures.
In 2020, he became the first person in Ireland to be convicted of coercive control.
