Woman beaten, stripped by ex

A young mother was beaten, stripped, and hosed down in a cold shower during a terror assault by her ex.

The shower’s plastic curtain was torn down and she felt was “going to die” as a former partner threatened to strangle her.

A man, aged 27, pleaded guilty at Limerick Circuit yesterday to charges of threatening to kill his former partner, the mother of their two young children. He also admitted a charge of assault, causing harm.
