Richard Allmark, 21, of Smallthorne, Stoke-on-Trent, who has been jailed today for more than a decade after he raped, assaulted and strangled a woman.

He inflicted a campaign of abuse on the survivor between May and December last year, assaulting her on numerous occasions by dragging her by her hair and strangling her.
We put out a wanted appeal to help with efforts to track him down. He handed himself in after seeing it and was then charged with the offences.
As part of his sentence, he was put on the Sex Offender’s Register indefinitely and served with a restraining order against the survivor.
DC Alicia Tierney, from our public protection unit, said: “The survivor in this case has shown immeasurable bravery in coming forward and telling us about the abuse she was subjected to.
“I’m pleased that we’ve been able to build the evidence needed to secure this result against a dangerous individual who subjected the survivor to such physical and emotional harm.”
