Woman relives the harrowing moment she thought her ex-boyfriend would kill her
A survivor of horrific domestic abuse has relived the terrifying moments her partner rounded on her in a brutal and sustained attack.Shards of glass flew across the bedroom floor of her Manchester flat as she pleaded with her boyfriend Scott Hughes to let her live.
Less than a year into their relationship Abbie was hospitalised with two 'blow out' fractured eye sockets, nasal fractures and a face so badly bruised her own family didn't recognise her. Cracks began to emerge in the relationship three weeks after Abbie went on a holiday to Australia with friends. On the day of the attack - a Friday - Abbie worked a late shift and then headed home, where she and Hughes had planned to have drinks.An argument erupted and Hughes went to a house party, leaving Abbie to fall asleep on the sofa.As soon as the guy left Scott just flew into another one of his rages," she said.
In an attempt to 'dispose of the evidence,' Hughes forced Abbie into the shower before assaulting her again. "I pleaded with him to stop because I knew in that moment if he didn't he was going to kill me," she said.Her terrifying ordeal only came to an end when Abbie managed to open the front door and scream for help, alerting neighbours to the house.
