MAN WHO ASSAULTED HIS EX-GIRLFRIEND AND BREACHED COURT ORDERS IS JAILED IN HUDDERSFIELD
A man was arrested after urging his ex-girlfriend to withdraw her complaint that he repeatedly assaulted her, a court heard.
Ian Muchmore, of Moorside Road in Kirkheaton, appeared at Kirklees Magistrates’ Court in custody.
He pleaded guilty to breaching bail conditions imposed by police.
The 20-year-old was arrested after his former girlfriend of two weeks complained that he assaulted her three times between October 1 and 15.
During one of the alleged attacks he is said to have called her “a whore” and then punched her in the eye during an argument in the street.
He was bailed with conditions that he did not contact his ex or go to her Paddock home ahead of his first hearing at the Huddersfield court on November 21.
Prosecutor Andy Wills said that since his arrest Muchmore had continued to contact her, including calling her, messaging via Facebook, and staying at her house for two nights.
Mr Wills said: “He initially contacted her asking her to drop the charges.
This was not threatening and they continued talking.” He also pleaded guilty to breaching a suspended sentence order made by Leeds magistrates in September for harassment.
Muchmore was sentenced to six weeks in jail, suspended for 12 months, with a requirement to attend 100 hours of unpaid work.
District Judge Michael Fanning activated the suspended sentence in full, jailing Muchmore for six weeks after he missed induction appointments and did not inform probation staff of his whereabouts.
The court was told that the victim later changed her mobile number to prevent further contact.
The couple’s brief relationship soured when Muchmore became paranoid and accused her of cheating.
His lawyer, Mike Sisson-Pell, said Muchmore had been chased by his ex following their break-up and went to her house to stay.
Muchmore also pleaded guilty to breaching a suspended sentence order made by Leeds magistrates in September for harassment.
The article is scheduled for trial on December 14.
