Glasgow podcaster James English convicted of domestic abuse against former partner
James English, 43, is due to be sentenced at Glasgow Sheriff Court on Wednesday after being found guilty of domestic abuse, the Evening Standard reports.
English, from Larkhall, South Lanarkshire, was convicted of engaging in a course of abusive behaviour toward his former partner between July 2022 and November 2023 in Glasgow and elsewhere.
The single charge encompassed several proven allegations following a trial at Glasgow Sheriff Court. These included an incident in which English seized the woman by the neck and pinned her against a door while she was pregnant, and a separate occasion on which he pressed his thumbs into her eyebrows. He was also convicted of kicking her, causing her to fall from a bed, and of striking her on the face.
English is known for appearing in Glow, the Scottish reality television series, before going on to host the podcast Anything Goes. The show has accumulated more than 800,000 subscribers on YouTube, where its channel describes it as "the home of raw, unfiltered, and powerful conversations" featuring guests including "true crime figures, ex-gangsters and police officers."
