Stratford man ordered held on $1m bond

Michael Beaulieu is charged with possession of an explosive device, first-degree unlawful restraint, possession of a controlled substance and threatening.

Police said Beaulieu first tried to suffocate the woman with a pillow, but then began choking her with his hands, yelling "Die bitch, why don't you just die." But when that failed, police said Beaulieu grabbed a cordless telephone and began jabbing her in the neck with the antenna.

Beaulieu then warned the woman he was going to shove the explosives in her mouth and light them if she continued screaming, police said.

Police said Beaulieu eventually let the woman go so she could get him breakfast. She immediately went to police.

Yesterday he was sentenced to three years in prison for previously assaulting her.
