A Leeds man attacked his girlfriend, stamped on her, left and then returned to carry out another brutal beating when she said she wanted to end their relationship.
Simon O'Rouke, 41, has been jailed for two years and three months for the horrific attack which took place after police had already attended 40 callouts in three years relating to arguments and assaults between the pair.
Leeds Crown Court heard on Wednesday that O'Rouke had been working a night shift with Hermes the night before the attack and went round to his partner's house at around midnight on July 3 this year after telling her his "depression was bad." Robert Galley, prosecuting, said the pair began drinking and things turned violent when the woman said she wanted to end their relationship.
