A "vile monster" subjected his ex-partner to a "reign of terror", breaking into her home to beat her up and threatening to kill her.
Shane Costello-Collins, from Wythenshawe, started his campaign of hatred against his former partner when he turned up at her workplace on September 4 last year.
Anna Chestnutt, prosecuting, told Manchester Crown Court the 26-year-old had arrived at his ex-partner's workplace at around 9pm, and was already intoxicated when he started shouting at her, after she asked him to stop spitting on the ground.
