DUNDEE MAN PLEADS GUILTY TO YEARS OF DOMESTIC ABUSE
Domestic abuser Barry Duggan will be sentenced next month after admitting a catalogue of abuse lasting almost three years.
At Forfar Sheriff Court, the 24-year-old pled guilty to the terrifying campaign in St Cyrus, Montrose and Gourdon in Aberdeenshire, between September 2020 and May 2023.
He acted in a controlling manner towards his partner, accused her of being unfaithful, seized her mobile phone and searched through it before deleting content.
Duggan, of Ecclescraig Road in St Cyrus, also used the phone to message others while pretending to be his partner.
He repeatedly called and texted her, made abusive remarks and violent threats and pulled her hair.
Duggan called the woman derogatory names while she was pregnant, punched her on the head and threatened her with violence.
He admitted attending at her home address, uninvited, during the night and also seizing her by the clothing, dragging her and punching her in the head and body and spitting on her, threatening to kill her, seizing and twisting her arm.
During the same incident, Duggan gesticulated with his fist, threw household items and attempted to take the woman’s dog.
