Haverfordwest: ‘Monster of a man’ attacked woman with fire extinguisher
A HAVERFORDWEST man described as a ‘monster’ when in drink sprayed a woman in the face with a fire extinguisher as the start of a sustained and brutal attack.
Morgan Ralph, aged 30, then cut Emma Thomas with a screwdriver and hit her in the face with a saucepan.
Ralph, of College Court, Hill Street, admitted inflicting grievous bodily harm and was today jailed by a judge at Swansea Crown Court for two years and eight months.
The sentence included two months for breaching a conditional discharge issued just a few weeks earlier after Ralph had assaulted his own father.
Judge Paul Thomas also issued a restraining order banning Ralph from contacting Miss Thomas.
Dean Pulling, prosecuting, said she was now “petrified” of Ralph and had said in a victim impact statement that he had ruined her life.
Ralph’s barrister, James Jenkins, said he had no idea whatsoever why he had attacked Miss Thomas, who he viewed as a friend.
“He has to stop drinking,” said Mr Jenkins, who added that Ralph was on medication for a broken neck and that the medicine and alcohol simply didn’t mix.
Judge Thomas described Ralph as a “thorough nuisance to the courts and to the locality where he lives.”
He said Ralph had an extensive history of offending, and always after drinking.
“You turn into a monster. If you can’t handle it then leave it alone.
“This was a sustained and brutal assault on a vulnerable lady. It was a merciless beating of a woman you had never been more than friends with.
“Having flipped you vented your anger and frustration on her.”
Judge Thomas said he noted that Ralph had been convicted in 2006 of an offence of wounding—and, as in this case, the victim had been a woman.

Driver denies injuring dog walker and elects Crown Court trial
Harry Sutton-Brown, 28, is accused of causing serious injury by careless or inconsiderate driving in Penally
A MOTORIST has elected for a Crown Court trial after being charged with causing serious injury to a dog walker in Penally.

Haverfordwest magistrates heard this week that the prosecution alleges Sutton-Brown struck Ms Morris on November 22, 2024, as he negotiated a bend in his Hyundai i30.
However, his solicitor said the complainant had been walking “three abreast” with two other people while exercising a dog.
“As the defendant came around the bend, the pedestrians were walking across the road in the central reservation,” his solicitor told the court.
“The defendant was blinded by the sun and he didn’t see the pedestrians in the middle of the road.”
Sutton-Brown, of Boars Head Bridge, Templeton, elected for trial at Swansea Crown Court.
The case will next be before the Crown Court on May 8.
He was released on unconditional bail.

Questions raised as 81-year-old woman faces drink-drive case
Defence solicitor tells Haverfordwest magistrates his client was medically unable to provide a breath sample and should have been offered an alternative test
QUESTIONS have been raised over whether the interests of justice are being served after an 81-year-old motorist was charged with failing to provide a breath specimen for analysis.
Kate Telford appeared before Haverfordwest magistrates this week after being listed for trial following her arrest on March 1.
The court heard that she was taken to Haverfordwest police station and asked to provide a breath sample. When she failed to co-operate, she was charged with failing to provide a specimen for analysis.
But her solicitor, Michael Kelleher, challenged the conduct of police officers during the incident, arguing that his client was physically unable to complete the test.
“The prosecution claims this was a deliberate failure to provide a breath sample, but the defendant has a growth in her mouth, a heart issue and her breathing isn’t sufficient to allow her to breathe into a breathalyser machine,” he said.
“All this information can be obtained from her doctors.
“The day she was arrested, the police should have provided her with an alternative method – a nurse was available to take blood, and there was also the option of a urine test. But basically, the police didn’t believe her and thought she was putting it all on. Even her request to sit on a chair was refused.
“This woman has no experience of criminal law, she has no previous convictions and she didn’t know how to argue her own case. Previous appeals have been refused in the interests of justice, but surely the interests of justice aren’t being met by failing to grant an appeal.”
After retiring to consider the submissions, the Bench refused Mr Kelleher’s application to appeal against the indictment.
“We have carefully considered the appeal before us and have gone through each of the five grounds,” said the presiding magistrate.
“We find that none of the factors apply to this case, therefore the appeal fails.”
