Speedboat killer Jack Shepherd admits punching woman and assaulting her with barbecue tongs
The 38-year-old admitted assaulting a woman in 2025, including punching her and striking her with barbecue tongs, as prosecutors dropped two allegations.
- Jack Shepherd, known as the Speedboat Killer, was originally sentenced to 10 years in 2018 for manslaughter following the death of Charlotte Brown when his speedboat capsized during their first date.
- He absconded from his trial by fleeing to Georgia but was extradited back to the UK to serve his sentence before being released on licence in January 2024.
- Shepherd admitted in 2025 to assaulting his girlfriend, including punching her and hitting her with barbecue tongs, leading to his recall to prison and pending sentencing in September 2025.
- A probation report on Shepherd's conduct during his time out of prison was ordered, and he stated his expected release date as January 2029.
