A jealous boyfriend left his girlfriend disfigured after biting her
during a kiss.Rhys Culley had asked Chanttelle Ward,18 if she loved him
before he sank his teeth into her face during the horrific attack.
The 23-year-old was jealous and insecure about what she would do while
he was working away. She told jurors during the trial Culley had tried
to kiss her and asked her if she still loved him before the bite.
'He put his whole mouth around my lips and pulled, I thought that my whole lip had come off. There was blood everywhere.'
They had been celebrating Miss Ward's mother's birthday and at about
10.30pm Miss Ward,and her aunt Susan Stewart shared a taxi home,
dropping her aunt off first.
When they got back to her house,he brought up a conversation that his
girlfriend had had with another man on Facebook earlier in the month.He
then took her phone off her in a bid to look through her Facebook
messages.When he found that the messages were no longer there he became
angry and started to shout at her, accusing her of having something to
hide.
At this point,she told the court, she realised that something was wrong
and that this wasn't a 'normal' argument for the pair, who had been
together for almost two and a half years.
She became scared and lifted her phone to call the defendant's mother to ask her to come and get him.
But Culley is said to have taken the phone from his victim, he also locked the doors so that she couldn't escape.
Later, when her phone was left unattended she made an emergency call but Culley again took the phone from her.
After Culley had bitten her, he 'rubbed his face in hers, smearing the
blood across her face and then he stuck his tongue into her mouth'.When
the police arrived they saw that they both had blood on them and over
their faces.'
Culley was arrested and Miss Ward was taken to hospital to have her
injuries examined.She suffered not only the injuries to her mouth, but
bruising to her arms and body, a scratch to her left breast and bruising
of the face and ear.
During his evidence Culley said he did not mean to harm his 'beautiful'
girlfriend, who he knew he was lucky to have.He was found guilty after a
trial.
He will be sentenced next month and has now been remanded in custody
