In 2026, the Offender Database recorded that Warren Slater, of Leicestershire, was sentenced for a violent assault on his own sister. On appearing at Leicester Crown Court on 4 February 2026, the defendant pleaded guilty to assault occasioning actual bodily harm (ABH). It was reported that the attack was a brutal beating that left the victim with severe injuries, leading the court to classify the incident as a significant act of domestic violence.
The investigation established the severity of the violence used during the assault. Leicestershire Police reported that the attack was life-threatening in nature. The prosecution reported that due to the risk Slater posed to the victim, a long-term protective measure was required. Following his guilty plea, the court moved immediately to sentencing to ensure the safety of the family members involved.
Judicial Findings and Investigative Detail
The court reported that Slater’s behaviour demonstrated a high level of physical aggression and a lack of self-control. Leicestershire Police confirmed that Slater is currently the subject of further active investigations. It was reported that he is on bail for four other offences and is due back in court to face allegations of harassment, intimidation, and physical and sexual offences against a former partner.
The Sentencing Judge noted the necessity of strict court orders to manage Slater’s conduct in the community. For his actions in Leicestershire, Slater was handed a 20-month prison sentence, suspended for two years. The judge noted that any further offending would likely result in the activation of the custodial term, and imposed a 10-year restraining order to prevent any contact with his sister.

Monitoring and Public Protection
