A woman described her partner "going crazy" before he made a tourniquet out of his ripped T-shirt and twisted the material around her neck. She could not speak and was gasping for air during the terrifying attack after a night out in June 6, 2019.
Her attacker was Anton Scott, who she lived with in Windmill Lane, Sneinton, for about three months. An argument kicked off because he was embarrassed by her drunkenness the night before.
After striking her with the back of his arm in bed, throwing a bowl at a wall and throwing punches at her face, he grabbed her by her hair and slammed her head on the floor. As the row escalated, he gritted his teeth as he used his T-shirt - which she grabbed and ripped - to tie around her neck.
