Dad assaults mom who wanted "peaceable" child custody arrangement (Stockton, England, United Kingdom)

Once again, we see criminal behavior on the part of a father airbrushed away as part of a "stormy relationship." But notice that the mother was actually bending over backwards to be accommodating to this creep (as is typical of abuse victims). She was looking for a "peaceable arrangment" that would allow dad ANTHONY JOHNSON to be a "good father."

Anthony Johnson responded to her overtures by punching her in the face, and breaking her jaw in two places.

Fathers rights people are always blaming violence on the "frustration" of poor daddies who are blocked from seeing their children by Evil, Alienating Mothers. It's all lies. What research shows is that these guys are all about controlling and hurting the mother for leaving their sorry @SS. Child custody is just a way to continue their abuse agenda.

Violent Stockton dad Anthony Johnson jailed for attackby Andrew Pain, Evening Gazette

A VIOLENT young man has been jailed after punching the mother of his two children leaving her with a jaw broken in two places.

Teesside Crown Court heard that Anthony Johnson and his partner Sarah Elliott had a stormy relationship and that trouble erupted during a meeting to discuss their two young children, aged four and two.

Prosecutor Sue Jacobs said: “There was then an argument started when she told him the relationship was over. She went to leave the house and he locked her in.

“She then sat in the window to attract the attention of a passer by, thereafter while in that position there was a struggle and he bit her finger and then punched her to the right side of the face with sufficient force to break her jaw.”

Johnson, 25, of Poppy Lane, Stockton, refused to accept responsibility for his actions and was found guilty of causing grievous bodily harm following a trial last month.

At his sentencing hearing his barrister Duncan McReddie said: “The thrust of my mitigation is to try and persuade My Lord to keep the inevitable prison sentence to a minimum.

“He now accepts throwing the punch that broke Sarah Elliott’s jaw.”

He added: “This man is not beyond redemption.”

The Recorder of Middlesbrough Judge Peter Fox QC told Johnson: “She was seeking a peaceable arrangement so that you could be a good father to the children even if you couldn’t continue to live with her.

“But as on too many other occasions in your short life you became violent.

“You first of all bit her hand and then struck her what must have been a heavy blow because it broke her jaw in two places.”

The judge jailed him for two years with an extra 39 weeks on top for breaching a suspended sentence order.
