Taunton Man Sentenced For Vicious 2019 Assault on Girlfriend
A Taunton man will serve 5-to-6 years in state prison for violently assaulting his girlfriend in 2019.
Bristol County District Attorney Thomas Quinn III says 48-year old Robert Hosea pleaded guilty to indictments charging him with strangulation, aggravated assault and battery, and intimidation of a witness. He was sentenced last week in Fall River Superior Court.
On March 17, 2019, Taunton Police were dispatched to Morton Hospital at approximately 8:45 p.m. for a report of a seriously injured woman. The victim had a swollen face, a black and blue eye which was swollen shut, and dried blood around her mouth and on her teeth. Her mouth was swollen and her front teeth were loose and appeared almost knocked out.
