Man who ‘poses a danger to women’ gets more jail time after breaking vicim’s jaw

A domestic abuser labelled a ‘danger to women’ faces many more years in jail.
Daley Oldham, aged 38, has a history of violence against women and was previously given an indeterminate prison sentence for serious assaults against two other women.

After his release on licence, he met another woman and later subjected her to similar abuse – breaking her jaw during an argument before forcing her to lie about how it happened.

Oldham came to the attention of Nottinghamshire Police in September 2018 after a series of calls about his violent and controlling behaviour.

He was later arrested when he was caught trying to gain access to his victim’s house.
His licence was revoked, and he has been in jail ever since.

Still fearful of potential retribution, his victim initially withdrew from the legal process before reengaging with officers in in 2022.

Oldham had previously denied all the allegations against him and waited until June this year – after the start of his trial at Stoke Crown Court – to plead guilty to a charge of causing grievous bodily harm.

The charge relates to an incident in 2015 when he punched his victim to the ground during an argument – leaving her with a broken jaw.

Oldham then prevented her from going to hospital until she agreed to mislead medical staff about the cause of her injury.

Under Oldham’s instruction she claimed she’d been struck accidentally by another man during a night out.

Oldham, of HMP Ranby, appeared for sentence at Nottingham Crown Court on Wednesday and was jailed for a further two years and three months.

He was also made subject to a restraining order forbidding any further contact with this victim.

Once he has completed his sentence he will remain in prison until he is considered safe for release.

Detective Constable Janet Percival, of Nottinghamshire Police, said:

“Oldham is a danger to women who was clearly unchanged by his initial spell behind bars.
“Indeed, it says much about his character that even after he was returned to jail his victim remained utterly terrified of him.

“He will now spend even more time behind bars where he can no longer cause such harm to others.

“That is a great result not only for the victim in this case and her family, but also for the other potential victims who have now been protected by her bravery and determination.
“So as this case comes to a close, I would like to put on record my thanks to her for sticking with this case and seeing it through court.”
