A man who subjected a woman to an ‘horrific’ attack in which he poured boiling water over her, repeatedly kicked her and ripped her hair out, has been jailed for eight years.
Richard Piercy, aged 35, of Lansdown Road, Faringdon, was sentenced after being convicted of inflicting grievous bodily harm at Oxford Crown Court on 14 August.
Piercy was also made subject to an indefinite restraining order.
