Wifebeater 'didn't like how she answered a question'
A man kicked and punched his estranged wife to the ground and then threw a car battery at her because he didn't like how she answered a question, Dublin Circuit Criminal Court heard today.
Judge Michael White described the attack as "particularly violent" and "vicious" and imposed a three year sentence, suspending two years on condition that Thomas Hickey kept away from the injured party.
