Keith Frith had been given the restraining order in 2022, along with a jail sentence, for violence against his partner. Leeds Crown Court heard this week that having been released from jail in November 2023, the pair resumed their relationship despite the order. Prosecutor Lydia Carroll said the pair “tried to make a go of things” but by February of this year, the woman realised Frith, a father of six, was “never going to change”.
