A man who obsessively stalked his wife and “threatened to kill her” has been given Hertfordshire’s first full Stalking Protection Order (SPO). The five-year order, granted at St Albans Magistrates’ Court on Monday, February 8, is also the first of its kind in the country as it was obtained without support from the victim. If the defendant from Watford breaches the terms of the SPO, he will be arrested. “This is really powerful new legislation which gives protection to those who are being stalked obsessively,” said Detective Inspector Fay Tooley from the Domestic Abuse Investigation Safeguarding Unit (DAISU). She added: “These kinds of predatory behaviours can escalate putting many victims’ lives at risk. An SPO goes a long way to protecting victims, whether or not they wish to support a police prosecution.”
An armed teenager who robbed three boys of their mobile phones has been sentenced. The 17-year-old from Harrow, who was 15 when he carried out the robberies in 2019, robbed two boys at knifepoint in Croxley Green, while a third boy was targeted in Chesham in Buckinghamshire. The teenager, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was found guilty of robbery at St Albans Magistrates Court on January 14 and given a referral order. The 17-year-old, who had never been convicted of any crimes before, will now attend a panel which will decide the best course of action for him. Detective Constable Rob King, from the Three Rivers Local Crime Unit, said: The defendant is a first-time offender and the referral order is a form of restorative justice, which is designed to support him in moving away from criminality and make better life choices.
