Jack Shepherd has pleaded guilty at Isleworth Crown Court to violently assaulting a woman, including attacking her with a set of barbecue tongs, after his release from jail following a speedboat crash.
Shepherd had already been jailed over the killing of Charlotte Brown in a River Thames speedboat crash.
The 38-year-old pleaded guilty over a prison video link on Tuesday to two counts of assault occasioning actual bodily harm and damaging property.
He was originally jailed for 10 years for manslaughter in 2018.
The assaults happened in February and June last year, and sparked Shepherd’s recall to prison.
He was originally jailed for the death of 24-year-old Charlotte Brown when his speedboat crashed during a first date.
Shepherd skipped his Old Bailey trial while on the run in Georgia, before he was eventually extradited back to the UK to serve his sentence.
He was set free on licence in January 2024, but faced recall to prison in September last year after he was accused of violence towards a woman.
The victim, referred to as Ms X, is a woman in her 50s who lived in the same building as Shepherd after his release from custody in 2024.
The pair began a relationship following Shepherd's release, but Parole Board documents reveal it deteriorated dramatically towards the end of 2024.
"Towards the end of 2024 the relationship with Mr Shepherd became violent and coercive on the part of Mr Shepherd," the documents read.
