A Telford man who made a woman’s life “a misery” by controlling her behaviour and then posting naked pictures of her in a Facebook chat has been jailed.
Caleb Hale, 26, from Windsor Road, Arleston, was sentenced to 38 months in prison at Shrewsbury Crown Court - sitting at Telford Magistrates Court - after pleading guilty to four offences.
The court was told of occasions where Hale could not contact her and would send a stream of messages and abuse until she was available for video calls again. He said: “It reached a point where she had no one to speak to, with Mr Hale saying he wanted her just for himself.” Mr Longworth said the victim had told how following the four-year ordeal she does not have many friends, finds it difficult to stay in work, or sleep and has been diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.
