Overview
- Donna Stalker, 34, pleaded guilty to unlawful wounding at Newcastle Crown Court.
- She was given 10 months' imprisonment suspended for 18 months, 150 hours of unpaid work, and ordered to pay £1,000 compensation.
- The July 13, 2024 incident at the Head of Steam left the man with a chin wound needing ten stitches plus nasal and lip injuries.
- Prosecutors rejected her claim she only intended to pour a drink, and she later contacted police after a social‑media appeal.
- Judge Tom Moran said he sentenced on the basis there was no intent to cause such severe harm and warned of the dangers of using glass in violence, as the victim reported lasting physical and mental effects.
