The domestic abuse survivor was also repeatedly called ‘dumb’, ‘thick’ and ‘stupid’ by his abusive partner.

Alex was mentally and physically tortured by his girlfriend.

He talked about how difficult it was to come forward and escape the situation.

He moved in with her for 9 months, during which time she used to hit and stab him with various objects.
He had suffered second and third degree burns from the boiling water she had poured over his back. When rescued, ambulance staff noted that Alex had self-treated the injuries with cling film. Hospital staff told him that he was 10 days away from death when he was found by authorities.

Syed also told the court that Worth started exercising control over Skeel early on in their relationship, telling him what to wear and who to meet. Worth also broke Skeel’s cellphone so he would not have contact with family and friends, and made him sleep on the floor for 8 months without bedding.
