a property in Newton-le-Willows on July 3 leaving
the woman with multiple injuries to her head and body.
Speaking after yesterday’s sentencing at
Liverpool Crown Court, DC Colette Robinson said:
“Potts subjected his former partner to a brutal
and sustained assault, which included the use
of an ornament and glasses, that left her with
multiple injuries to her head, face, torso, legs
and arm. Not only did the victim’s six-year-old
daughter witness her mother being attacked,
she was also kicked by Potts to the head herself
when she tried to intervene to protect her."
“This incident has had a profound effect on
both the mother and her daughter, both
physically and psychologically."

relationships and these are available free of charge."
“Whether you are a man or a woman, you should
not have to suffer or endure verbal or
physical abuse from a partner or relative."
