A judge was having none of it
A thug who battered the mother of his children when she refused to make him a brew told a court: "I'm not a horrible person." On another occasion, John Watson, 37, got the woman in a headlock and threw a shoe at her when she didn't respond quickly enough to his request to use her vape.
READ MORE: They were meant to keep him under 'intense oversight' after jail release, they didn't - and he raped a girl Officers found Watson at the woman's flat, in breach of his bail conditions. He was arrested. It was established he had asked to her to use her vape before lashing out. The author of a pre-sentence report said Watson told them that 'agencies always believe birds' and 'don't believe men's side of the story'. "Not exactly the best indication of remorse," judge Angela Nield said.
