'I'm not afraid of you anymore': Man who made partner walk 16km to work jailed for coercive control

The court heard the man made his partner withdraw her wages from an ATM as soon as they were lodged in her account and gave her a meagre allowance for essentials.

 A man who made his partner walk 16km to work has now been jailed for two years for coercive control where he carried out a litany of actions designed to humiliate and overpower her.

Sergeant Joseph Lee investigated the case against Robert Fedyna, who previously lived in West Cork, and described a litany of offences, including throwing the family’s pet rabbit against a wall.
