York Eaglescliffe Domestic Abuser
Glen Hutchinson, a 29-year-old man originally from Eaglescliffe with previous ties to York, has been formally sentenced to a lengthy prison term following a disturbing pattern of violent and coercive behavior directed at a woman over a span of two years. The case, which culminated in a court hearing at York Crown Court, revealed a series of brutal assaults and manipulative tactics employed by Hutchinson against his victim.

Hutchinson had previously pleaded guilty to multiple serious charges, including intentional strangulation, four counts of assault causing actual bodily harm, and perverting the course of justice. These charges paint a grim picture of his conduct, which involved physically attacking the woman on several occasions. One particularly alarming incident involved Hutchinson punching the woman in the head while she was holding a baby, an act that resulted in the child's head hitting a doorframe, highlighting the reckless and dangerous nature of his violence.

Throughout the period of abuse, the woman was pregnant, adding a further layer of concern and distress to the case. Despite the severity of his actions, Hutchinson displayed a complete lack of remorse, continuing his pattern of violent and coercive behavior without regard for the consequences or the well-being of his victim. His conduct extended beyond physical violence; he also attempted to intimidate the woman and dissuade her from cooperating with law enforcement efforts. North Yorkshire Police reported that Hutchinson tried to influence his victim to withdraw her support from the investigation, an act that underscores his manipulative tendencies and disregard for justice.

Following his breach of bail conditions, Hutchinson was remanded in custody and subsequently sentenced to four years and nine months in prison. The court's decision reflects the gravity of his misconduct and the threat he posed to his victim. The victim, who demonstrated remarkable courage by coming forward and supporting the prosecution, expressed hope that her sentence would serve as a step toward healing and moving past her traumatic experience. Police officials praised her bravery and resilience, acknowledging the severity of Hutchinson’s actions and his conduct during the legal process, which further exemplified his pattern of violence and intimidation.
