Twisted Control and Threats Revealed

- He subjected her to continual abusive and degrading comments.

Justice Served with Restraining Orders
Alongside his jail term, McNally-Jones was slapped with five-year restraining orders banning any contact with the victim or her helper.
PC Ella Russell, of East Kent’s Vulnerability Investigation Team, said: “The first priority of our team is protecting victims like the woman who suffered appalling abuse at the hands of McNally-Jones. Her bravery in disclosing his behaviour has rightly led to his imprisonment and restraining orders to keep her and another woman safe.”
“I urge anyone suffering coercive control or domestic abuse to report it immediately by calling 999 or 101, visiting our website, or going to a police station. Our officers will treat you with respect, keep you away from the abuser, and support you throughout investigations and court proceedings.”
