A 22-year-old controlling girlfriend has been jailed for seven-and-a-half years after admitting that she poured boiling water over her boyfriend, stabbed him, and had also banned him from their bed.
Jordan Worth, a fine art graduate, controlled every aspect of her boyfriend's life from the time they were 16 when they met at the age of 16. Luton Crown Court also heard how she had taken over his Facebook account and further isolated him from his friends.
During one such incident, one neighbour had allegedly heard her boyfriend shout, “Get off me, you are hurting me.” Another heard him shouting, “Get off my head. Don't keep doing that to my head.”
He was seen many times with a limp, his arm in a sling and with black eyes.
In June 2017, neighbours had called the police to the couple's residence in the early hours as they heard shouting.
She pleaded guilty to controlling or coercive behaviour in an intimate relationship, wounding with intent and causing grievous bodily harm with intent between April 2016 and June 2017.
She was jailed and was also made the subject of a restraining orderthat stops her from contacting the victim for an indefinite period.
