🔹 Robbery Conviction:
In April 2008, Cooke was convicted of robbery after attacking a learner driver and instructor alongside two accomplices. They stole a phone, sunglasses, and cigarettes, and issued violent threats to one of the victims.
🔹 Court Orders:
A restraining order was issued in August 2016, prohibiting Cooke from contacting one of his victims through any means—direct or indirect. The order allows only for child contact through court proceedings or legal representation.
🚨 WARNING:
Cooke has a longstanding pattern of escalating violence and abuse. His repeated breaches of legal boundaries and continued aggression toward women indicate a significant risk to others.
Women are urged to check Clare’s Law if they have any contact with David Cooke. His history makes it clear: he is not safe to be around.
