Monster who gouged girlfriend's eyes out fails in freedom bid for sixth time

A thug who was caged for life after he gouged his partner’s eyes out in a horrifying domestic abuse case in 2011 has been refused parole for the sixth time and will remain behind bars.

Shane Jenkin, 42, blinded his partner, mother-of-two Tina Nash at her home during a 12-hour ordeal in which she battled for her life. He was convicted after a trial in 2012 at court.

Tina’s injuries were inflicted in what was described in court as a “premeditated, sustained and vicious attack”. Jenkin, from Cornwall, who has had parole turned down five times in the past, has once again been unsuccessful in an application for release on licence, reports Cornwall Live.
