A successful businessman has been given a seven-year sentence after he 'punished' his ex-wife for leaving him by attacking her with a hammer and screwdriver.
Alec Butt, 71, was sentenced at Bristol Crown Court on Monday to seven years and nine months in prison, while he is set to serve the final third on licence.
The judge rejected Butt's claim that he had acted in self-defence as he was found guilty of grievous bodily harm against his ex-wife Anna Butt.
The trial was only held in March 2021, after being postponed due to coronavirus. When it was delayed, Anna said she felt 'like the world crumbled around me' as she 'struggled to deal with the unknown'.
