Andrew Waddell, 6’2” tall and nicknamed ‘Shrek’ had assaulted his partner and injured a police officer who tried to arrest him.
Waddell has now finally been sentenced for a string of offences going back almost five years.
Waddell, a prisoner at Edinburgh, appeared in the dock at Dunfermline Sheriff Court having previously admitted the following offences.
On November 3, 2014 at Blair Avenue, Glenrothes, he assaulted his partner, by struggling with her and seizing her by the hair, causing her to fall to the ground, all to her injury.
Between May 8 and 15 this year, having been lawfully remanded to Orchard Clinic, Edinburgh, he absconded from the hospital in an attempt to avoid prosecution and attempted to defeat the ends of justice.
A warrant was granted when Waddell failed to turn up at court in Kirkcaldy for his domestic abuse case in 2015 and police finally tracked him down to a farm where he was working the following year.
He was using a false name but work colleagues pointed officers towards Waddell, known to them by the nickname ‘Shrek’.
A police officer was injured as he unsuccessfully tried to stop Waddell from driving off. He then went to Ireland where he worked for several years before returning to Scotland last year and handed himself in to the police.
The court was told that the domestic assault in 2014 took place in front of a two-year-old child. The victim, Waddell’s then partner, was taken to hospital with a suspected fractured skull but tests showed this was not the case.
Sheriff Charles MacNair jailed Waddell for 22 months and imposed a three-year non-harassment order to protect his former partner.
