A heartbroken mum says she will "never forgive" the "evil" partner of her daughter following the abuse she suffered at his hands in the days before her tragic death.
The 33-year-old was jailed for four years, with an extended licence period of two years, after pleading guilty to assault occasioning actual bodily harm; and false imprisonment. Prosecuting, Vanessa Thompson said Ms Brown was released from prison on licence in 2021 and initially moved in with her mum.
Her family believed he was jealous and controlling of her, the court heard. Her sister believed he didn’t like her having male friends on Facebook. Ms Brown later confided in her mum. She said Hardman was aggressive towards her and had racist views. "She said he had been dragging her round the streets by her hair, that the defendant had snapped up her phone and she was scared. She said she didn't want her family to know where she was because she was concerned about their safety."
Hardman was initially arrested on suspicion of murder. He told police in a prepared statement Ms Brown had been abusive towards him; that she 'would often fall over and bruise easily' and that she had taken diazepam, 'meth' and prescription drugs.Taking to the witness box, wearing a shirt with a picture of Charissa - who also used the spelling Charrissa - and the words 'My Girl' , Susan Brown, read out a victim personal statement.

Bedside assessment of left atrial pressure in critical care: a multifaceted gem - Critical CareEvaluating left atrial pressure (LAP) solely from the left ventricular preload perspective is a restrained approach. Accurate assessment of LAP is particularly relevant when pulmonary congestion and/or right heart dysfunction are present since it is the pressure most closely related to pulmonary venous pressure and thus pulmonary haemodynamic load. Amalgamation of LAP measurement into assessment of the ‘transpulmonary circuit’ may have a particular role in differentiating cardiac failure phenotypes in critical care. Most of the literature in this area involves cardiology patients, and gaps of knowledge in application to the bedside of the critically ill patient remain significant. Explored in this review is an overview of left atrial physiology, invasive and non-invasive methods of LAP measurement and their potential clinical application. Graphical abstract
