A woman leaped from a first-floor window, breaking her back and ankle, in a desperate attempt to escape her partner’s violent outburst. Colin Ferry, identified as the ‘black sheep’ of a notorious organized crime family, lashed out at his partner after a trivial incident involving a wrongly delivered pizza. Despite trying to distance himself from the criminal activities of his family, Ferry’s anger erupted, leading to physical assault.
The unsettling incident unfolded on September 22, 2023, when an argument over a misplaced pizza delivery escalated into verbal abuse and physical violence. The victim, who had been in a relationship with Ferry for four months, felt trapped in a controlling and jealous environment. Fearing for her safety, she made a split-second decision to jump out of a window to avoid further harm, landing with severe injuries.
After seeking help at a nearby establishment, the woman was rushed to the hospital, where medical examinations revealed a broken vertebrae and a fractured ankle. In a harrowing victim impact statement, she expressed deep fear and disruption to her life post-incident. The injuries sustained have not only necessitated surgical interventions but have also robbed her of her active lifestyle, leaving her in a constant state of anxiety and isolation from her social circle.
Ferry, 36, with a history of violent offenses, including domestic battery, pleaded guilty to causing grievous bodily harm. He received a 32-month prison sentence along with a 15-year restraining order. Despite attempts to distance himself from his family’s criminal activities, Ferry’s actions have left a lasting impact on the victim’s physical and emotional well-being.
