Man jailed for killing online girlfriend had been banned from seeing his own mum

A man who has been jailed for stabbing his online girlfriend to death when she travelled to the UK from Canada was previously banned from seeing his own mum, it's been revealed. Jack Sepple, 23, jailed two weeks ago for murdering his 19-year-old partner Ashley Wadsworth in his flat in Chelmsford, Essex.

But the killer was earlier slapped with a restraining order taken out by his own mother after he trashed her car in 2018. During his trial, the court heard how Sepple had eight previous convictions for 12 offences - nearly all for domestic violence.

Two of his previous partners were granted restraining orders against him, MirrorOnline reports. The Mirror has now reveal that Sepple's own mum, Tracy Dalton, 55, also had a restraining order against her son.
