Thug facing life sentence after murdering man by stamping his head so hard he left a footprint on his face Dominic Fraser, 29, stamped Kevin Hadley, 30, to death in a pub brawl The dead man's father watched as his son was fatally injured The blows were described as like 'penalty-kicks' Murderer: Dominic Fraser, who has been convicted of murder after stamping on his victim's head ina bar brawl A man who brutally killed a pubgoer by stamping on his head so hard he left a footprint on his face has been warned he faces life in jail after being found guilty of murder. Dominic Fraser, 29, launched a vicious attack on Kevin Hadley, 30, and delivered blows to the face that were like "taking penalty-kicks." The pair had been drinking in the Lounge Bar pub in Great Bridge, West Midlands, when a fight broke out between them on October 16 last year as they played pool. Mr Hadley's terrified father Kevin Hadley Snr, 52, looked on as thug Fraser delivered fatal kicks to his son's face as he lay defenceless on the ground. Another man Shazad Ali, 24, battered Mr Hadley with a pool cue as the mass brawl erupted. The victim was left in a pool of blood in the bar and was rushed to hospital, where he was later pronounced dead. A post-mortem examination revealed Mr Hadley died from 'blunt force trauma' to the head and suffered a severe brain injury. The clear outline of a Vans trainer was found imprinted on Mr Hadley's face, and police later found a pair of shoes at Fraser's house which matched the design. Today Fraser - who denied murder on the grounds of self defence - was found guilty after a nine day trial at Wolverhampton Crown Court. He was told he will be handed a life jail term when sentenced later this month alongside Ali, who had already admitted manslaughter. Sergeant Mike Griffiths from West Midlands Police's Major Investigations Team, said after the case: 'This is a very sad case in which alcohol has impaired people's judgement and self-control and the result is one young man dead and another facing the prospect of being jailed for life. The Vans footwear worn by Dominic Fraser on the night of the attack. The tread on the footwear was imprinted on Mr Hadley¿s face 'It's undeniable the victim started the altercation but the level of violence used by Fraser was grotesque and unjustifiable. 'His lead role in Mr Hadley's death was confirmed by the conclusive CCTV footage and presence of his footwear imprints on the victim's face. 'In law, it's not necessary to prove intent to kill for a murder conviction, an intention to cause really serious injury is enough and the ferocity with which Fraser repeatedly stamped on Mr Hadley's head was clearly an attempt to seriously harm him.' The court heard how the father and son were out ahead of England's World Cup qualifying game against Poland on October 16 which was called off due to heavy rain. Jurors were shown CCTV images through the trial which showed Fraser intervening to deliver fatal kicks. The footage showed the victim lying on the floor while Fraser, from Tipton, West Midlands, stamped on his head several times. The Lounge Bar in Great Bridge, where the incident took place Three other men had also admitted their parts in the fight at earlier court hearings. Roy Cross, 30, also from Tipton, admitted wounding Mr Hadley Snr and trying to wound him by hurling a fire extinguisher towards his head as he lay on the floor. Sadaquat Ali, 31, from Kingswinford, West Midlands., admitted assaulting Mr Hadley Snr who was also knocked out in the brawl but later recovered in hospital. Another 30-year-old man, from Tipton, admitted threatening behaviour. Sgt Griffiths added: 'As Fraser left the pub he kicked Mr Hadley Snr twice in the head as he lay injured on the floor, an act the prosecution said was a telling piece of evidence and summed up his state of mind. All five attackers gathered in the car park at the Hen & Chickens pub after the attack before going their separate ways but all were arrested by police in the following weeks and have been brought to justice. In a statement read out in court, Mr Hadley's mother Marlene, 62, described her son as a pillar of support and help who visited her almost every day. 'It's impossible to think of life without him. I am broken and can never be the person I was before and my family will never be the same. The victim's mother She said: 'The day Kevin died was my eldest son's birthday and the day of Kevin's funeral coincided with my wedding anniversary. They were once happy days, but now they will just be a reminder of losing our son. David Parsons, Senior Crown Prosecutor from West Midlands Crown Prosecution Service, added: 'What happened can only be described as gratuitous violence which resulted in one man being rendered unconscious and the other receiving serious injuries from which he died. 'Due to the ferocity of the attack on the victim, post-mortem examination revealed a distinct pattern of a sole of a shoe which was found on the deceased's face. On his arrest, a pair of trainers with a very similar sole pattern was later recovered from Fraser. 'Our thoughts are today with Mr Hadley junior's friends and family and we hope that today's verdict can bring a sense of closure on this very tragic incident.'
