A Dundee man who had unlawful sex with two underage girls in Angus will be sentenced next month.
Donny McKenzie, 20, of Balunie Terrace, sent Facebook friend requests to girls before asking to meet up with them.
He previously pleaded guilty to repeatedly having sex with a 15-year-old girl in Arbroath between December 7 2010, and January 8 2011. McKenzie also admitted having sex with another 15-year-old girl in Arbroath on November 19 2011.
He further admitted three charges of threatening or abusive behaviour, including telling one of the girls he was going to hang himself. He will be sentenced on May 21.
Depute fiscal Hazel Anderson said the first girl was in a short-term relationship with him which started after a chance meeting in Arbroath.
She said: “He did not mention his age at this time but asked what age she was. She replied she was 15.
“The relationship continued and one night the accused spent the night at her home where they had sex. She was happy for the sexual intercourse to happen on this occasion.
“They had sex on two further occasions but she stated on those occasions she felt under pressure to have sex. She subsequently changed her phone number and Facebook account to sever ties with the accused.”
Ms Anderson said McKenzie met up with the second girl in Arbroath after he sent her a friend request on Facebook.
She said: “The accused told her he was 19. She told him she was 15.”
McKenzie met up with the girl after drinking five pints of lager and they had sex on a bench. Six days later she mentioned to McKenzie that she was with a male friend and he became “abusive and angry.”
Ms Anderson said: “He sent a text message to her saying he was going to kill the male. He also said in the text that he had burst his hand open and that he was going to hang himself.”
Ms Anderson said the woman was alarmed by the nature of the messages and contacted the police.
