A man punched his girlfriend so hard that he left her with injuries normally only seen in car crash victims.
Daniel Dolan flew into a rage after his partner challenged him over messages she had found on his phone from a woman he had had an affair and fathered a child with. When the victim responded to his blows by tipping his breakfast over him, he attacked her with such ferocity that she suffered a ruptured spleen - leaving her in pain which she described as "worse than childbirth".
Liverpool Crown Court heard today, Tuesday, that the 34-year-old and Simone Williams had been together "for some time" and have a child together. But Arthur Gibson, prosecuting, said that Dolan had also been seeing another woman - whom he also went on to have a child with.
