'Raving and furious' man threatened partner after finding out he was not father of child
Stage: Sentence
Plea: Guilty
Outcome: Judge Crowe said this was "a marginal case" as to whether Nolan should be imprisoned, before she accepted that a report from the Probation Service showed that he has "done a lot of work on his rehabilitation". "I have decided to give him a chance," Judge Crowe said before she imposed a sentence of three years, which she suspended in full for 18 months on the condition that Nolan engage with the Probation Service for those 18 months.
