Man put face and nurse’s uniform on pillow mannequin to look like ex-partner

Man put face and nurse’s uniform on pillow mannequin to look like ex-partner

A man who made a mannequin of pillows wearing what looked like his ex-partner’s face and uniform and then sent her a picture of it has been spared jail for the time being.

Mark Glass, 20, of Crossgate, Cupar, appeared at Dundee Sheriff Court for causing his ex-partner fear and alarm.

He was convicted of engaging in a course of action between December 2014 and February 2015.

The court heard that the day after the woman ended her relationship with Glass, she received numerous messages on Facebook and calls.

In one incident he turned up outside her place of work at Adamson Hospital in Cupar with flowers and a teddy bear.

She eventually changed her mobile phone number on February 2. However, the next day she received a Facebook message which disturbed her enough to contact the police.

Depute fiscal Susan Ruta told the court: “She received a private Facebook message where the accused had one of her nursing uniforms on some pillows placed on the sofa and it had a face on it to make it look like her.”

She also told the court Glass had made persistent calls to her mother’s home phone using a withheld number and had also been sending messages to the woman’s friends and colleagues.

Defence solicitor Mike Short said: “He accepts full responsibility.

“This is a case of him not taking the message that the relationship was finished.

“He showed up with flowers and a teddy bear. It was unwanted affection and he hasn’t seen her since this matter.

“It is a shame it had to come to court for him to get this message but he has now got the message.”

Sheriff Alastair Carmichael deferred sentence on Glass for three months, telling him this was an opportunity for him to demonstrate good behaviour, complete as many hours of a previously imposed community payback order as possible and attend one-to-one meetings as part of a domestic abuse programme, and warning him: “You are on the brink of a custodial sentence.”
