Springfield Man Could be Facing Life in Prison

A Springfield, VT man who was arrested for beating his girlfriend could get life sentence, reports HereCast.

Jason Skibniowsky, 32, was arrested on Tuesday at a gas station after beating his girlfriend and holding her against her will for three days. The victim told police that received her wounds on Saturday night when Skibniowsky beat her with a crowbar.

Upon arriving to the gas station in Weathersfield, police began to question the 32-year-old. When told he was under arrest, he allegedly took off running towards a heavily wooded area. Police were able to subdue him after hitting him with a baton and tasering him.

In October, Skibniowsky was charged with first-degree domestic assault and resisting arrest. He is now charged with first-degree domestic assault with a deadly weapon, first degree aggravated domestic assault, and kidnapping. He’s also being charged with three misdemeanors for disorderly conduct, resisting arrest, and violating a court-ordered pre-trial release condition.

Skibniowsky is currently being held without bail.
