A man who beat his girlfriend and threatened her with a machete has avoided a prison sentence at Leeds Crown Court today.
Although the two had arguments in the past, this made the victim nervous, so she returned from work straight away.
The court was told she said"I can't believe you hit me", before Bleasby calmed down and blamed her for the assault. The victim then forgave him and the two slept in the same bed that evening. Mitigating, Cristopher Dunn made the argument that, in order for Bleasby to no longer be a threat to people in future, he must receive support from the probation service, which he would not get with an immediate prison sentence.
