Violent, on-bail offender's 3-year sentence for vicious attacks on partner and threat to eat her liver was too lenient, court agrees

Stage: Appeal

Plea: Guilty

Outcome: Today the Court of Appeal concluded that the sentence imposed was too lenient and resentenced Doyle to five years' imprisonment in respect of the two counts, to run concurrently with each other. Mr Justice Owens said that the five-year term of imprisonment is greater than that which would have been imposed if Doyle had not committed the offence while on bail and had not been in an intimate relationship with the victim.
