Wigan domestic abuser spared jail term
Adam Bond, 30, of Kendal Road, Ince, had previously appeared before Wigan justices to plead guilty to assaulting Cara Fleming by beating on May 25.
Explaining why a custodial sentence was imposed, the bench said: “The defendant carried out a sustained attack including punching in the face. The offence was also committed in a domestic setting with a child present.”

He was given a 12-month rehab activity requirement and must pay compensation, court costs and surcharge totalling £665.
