Jack Shepherd, the man serving a decade-long sentence for the manslaughter of Charlotte Brown, has been handed a 20-month prison term for violently attacking his former partner. The offence included hitting the woman’s chest with a set of hot barbecue tongs.
At Isleworth Crown Court earlier this year, the 38-year-old pleaded guilty to two counts of assault occasioning actual bodily harm and charges related to property damage. The assaults occurred in February and June of last year.
Judge Martin Edmunds sentenced Shepherd to 20 months in custody, to be followed by four years on an extended licence. However, the judge noted that existing law prevented him from adding extra time to Shepherd’s original 10-year sentence for manslaughter, meaning Shepherd remains scheduled for release in January 2029.
Shepherd was originally convicted in 2018 for killing 24-year-old Charlotte Brown after a speedboat crash during a first date. He had been released on licence in January 2024 but was recalled to prison in September last year following accusations of violence toward a woman.
