Man Sentenced for Strangling Ex-Partner

Alistair Hopkinson has been jailed for 2.5 years after pleading guilty to multiple violent assaults against his former partner, including strangulation and suffocation that left her unconscious. Court heard he punched her and then choked her, even forcing her head into a pillow to cut off her air. It was after a particularly brutal attack that she fought back and called police — a courageous move that helped secure his conviction. Nottinghamshire Police praised her bravery and reaffirmed their mission to combat domestic abuse, urging survivors to come forward. Hopkinson also received a lifetime restraining order, and police are encouraging anyone in danger to seek help through national helplines or silent emergency services — this case is meant to inspire others to speak up and get support.
