A jealous bully who subjected his girlfriend to a horrific campaign of abuse, a former police officer who sold dodgy TV boxes, and a man who tried to push a police officer into a canal are among those jailed in Greater Manchester in June 2020.
Stephen Williams, 30, of Bolton, pleaded guilty to controlling and coercive behaviour, assault, and witness intimidation. He held a knife to his partner's throat, poured corrosive cleaner over her head, and threatened to kill her and her family. He was sentenced to two years in prison and made subject to a restraining order.
Ex-PC Daniel Aimson, 39, of Wigan, had a year added to his existing sentence for conspiracy to defraud. He ran a sophisticated operation selling ZGemma boxes loaded with software to access subscription channels without paying. The operation made £655,000 in 13 months, funding luxury meals and hotel stays.
Sean Morris, 32, of Salford, was jailed for 12 weeks after rugby-tackling a female police officer in an attempt to push her into Salford Quays canal. He claimed it was a cry for help. He pleaded guilty to assaulting an emergency services worker.
