'Toxic' domestic abuser broke woman's nose after demanding 'respect'

A “controlling” domestic violence thug headbutted his partner and broke her nose after demanding “respect” from her and claiming she would “never meet anyone like me”.

Mark Woolley, 50, of Grangemoor, Runcorn, and his partner had been arguing during the weekend of October 29 and on Saturday, October 30, she asked him to leave. Jayne Morris, prosecuting at Chester Crown Court sitting at Chester Magistrates' Court on Tuesday, said Woolley began to pack a bag but refused to go.

As the row continued, Woolley followed his victim downstairs while she shouted at him to leave and he told her: “You need to have respect for me. You will lose the best thing in your life. You will never meet anyone like me. You will be on your own forever.”
