Overview
- Lewis Rudd, 36, was sentenced to three and a half years in prison and given an indefinite restraining order after a jury conviction at Hull Crown Court.
- Jurors dismissed his claim that he acted in self-defence, and the judge said Rudd told the jury a pack of lies.
- The attack at a Thornwick Bay caravan in October 2022, during a make-or-break weekend, involved strangling, punches and stamps that left the woman unconscious, according to the court.
- The woman escaped by jumping from a bathroom window onto concrete and was treated at Scarborough Hospital for a head cut, neck abrasions and chest and spine tenderness.
- Rudd drove away from the site, was arrested at a petrol station and later admitted drink-driving, which led to a driving ban.
