This is the moment a vile abuser swigs a bottle of Prosecco and sings about his manslaughter charge after his ex-girlfriend took her own life and blamed him in her suicide note.
Kiena Dawes, 23, wrote ‘I was murdered’ in her harrowing suicide note before she died on a railway track in Lancashire.
The hairdresser, from Fleetwood, Lancashire, also said in the letter it was her ex-boyfriend, Ryan Wellings, 30, who had ‘killed’ her after he repeatedly abused her.
Wellings was cleared of manslaughter today but was convicted of assault and controlling and coercive behaviour.

Police have released a video shared by Wellings on Facebook just one hour after he left the police station after he was charged with manslaughter.

In the clip, he said: ‘I’m driving around with a bottle of Prosecco.
‘I have been told off an hour ago on a manslaughter charge. It’s all f****** s**t.’
Wellings, who cried when he was arrested, had been detained just 11 days before Kiena took her own life after he brutally attacked her in front of their baby daughter.
Police released harrowing images of Keina with blood pouring from her head on July 11, 2022.
In a recording of the 999 call, she tells the operator: ‘Please, please there’s blood everywhere. Please help me…quick.’

Kiena continues: ‘I really don’t feel very well…I just need to sit down’.
She can be heard reassuring her daughter as she explained to police she ‘woke up in the hallway’ while her baby was screaming.
She added: ‘I’m actually pouring with blood. I’ve just woken up. I was unconscious.
‘It’s absolutely pouring down my face, but I don’t know what’s happened. Well, I do know what’s happened, but I don’t know what’s happened to the injury.’
When officers arrived, they discovered Kiena’s head was bleeding and the towel rail in the bathroom had been damaged.
Blood was splattered in the hallway and on a window ledge from the violent attack.
Just 11 days later, Kiena drove to her friends house and let herself in whilst she was in the shower.
She left her nine-month-old daughter in the house along with a suicide note which said: ‘The end. I fought hard, I fought long. I went through pain no one could imagine.
‘I was murdered. Ryan Wellings killed me. He ruined every bit of strength I had left. I didn’t deserve it.
‘I hope my life saves another by police services acting faster. Don’t let bullies live free.’

She also apologised to her daughter for having to ‘let you go’ and said the world had ‘turned their back’ on her.
Kiena said she hoped the baby would be ‘kept away from the monster who is called her dad’.
After leaving her baby and her suicide note at her friends house, she travelled to a country lane and was later struck by a high-speed train.
The couple had been in an ‘intense’ abusive relationship for two years, the court heard.

In her suicide note, Kiena said she hoped the baby would be ‘kept away from the monster who is called her dad’
He also said he would ‘make her look like Katie Piper’ by throwing acid in her face and threatened to take her teeth out with a drill.
Lancashire Police referred themselves to the police watchdog following her death as Kiena had begged them for help and documented her injuries from the abuse.
The Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) launched an investigation into whether officers acted fast enough following concerns for Kiena’s safety.
It was previously announced one officer would face gross misconduct proceedings, with two others accused of misconduct.
Wellings has been remanded in custody ahead of sentencing.
