Stone admitted to nine charges including two counts of assault by beating, two of causing criminal damage and one of assault occasioning actual bodily harm. He was sentenced at Maidstone Crown Court to two years’ imprisonment on Thursday 27 November 2025.

Police Constable Lauren Yates said: ‘Stone has shown himself to be an abusive bully with a capacity for violence towards women.
