Don't You Want Me?

The ex-partner of one woman is having a difficult time understanding: No, she does not want him - she no longer wants to live with a tyrannical, overbearing, control freak and has set up home in another area of Llanffuglen with a considerate, agreeable, hard-working man. Ex-partner tried to split them up by making life as difficult as possible for them:

xxxx Vandalism: paint stripper on the car
xxxx Harassment: phone calls

Then he started interfering in their lives in a fanatical way so much so that a Judge granted the couple an injunction against ex-partner to prevent him coming anywhere near them. This has been effective until now; ex-partner has succeeded in poisoning the mind of their son against the mother so effectively, that fired up, probably with a quantity of booze, and accompanied by several beefy mates he went round and beat the new partner very badly. If it was not for the intervention of neighbours who saw what happened, then the yobs would probably be looking at a murder charge rather than ABH or assault – no charge has yet made yet.

Mr Bill was asked to visit the victim and take a statement and photos showing the extent of the beating. It was probably handy they asked Mr Bill as no one else seemed to know how to operate a digital camera not incorporated into a mobile phone, transfer the photos to a computer and then email them to the another Police station - rather than faxing (???) as they usually do.
Mr Bill hopes his thorough and it has to be said copious statement might help gain a conviction for this dreadful assault. Maybe if the ex has no one else stupid enough to go and do his dirty work then this couple stand some chance of making a life together.

The rest of the shift was mainly confirmation to Mr Bill of just how idiotic our licensing laws now are. Cheap alcohol available any time - have we learned nothing from history?
