🚨 Repeat Offender Alert 🚨🌧 Swansea seems to have its very own drama unfolding! Michael Evans, 65, can’t seem to get the message. Despite numerous warnings to leave his ex-partner in peace, he’s been slapped with yet another breach of a restraining order.
Evans, who styles himself as the victim, made an unannounced, unwelcome appearance at his former partner’s house— again. This act of defiance led to his arrest, where his behaviour towards police officers was nothing short of fiery. Officers faced a stream of verbal abuse, including bizarre accusations that the police were “working for Jeffrey Epstein.”
Despite a history scattered with convictions—67 offences to date, including 23 breaches of restraining orders—Evans seemed determined to flout the law. Following his sentencing last June for stalking with intent to cause fear, Evans was handed a suspended prison term along with a restraining order. Yet, he couldn’t resist another breach, believing himself untouchable: “Police have got nothing on me,” he once boasted.🤦‍♂️
But this time, his luck’s run dry. Judge Paul Thomas KC has had enough, sentencing Evans to seven months in prison. He’s to serve 40% of his time behind bars before heading back out under license in the community.đź”’
Evans’ lawyer revealed a sip of alcohol led to his poor decision-making. But really, at 65, you’d hope he’s learned by now! The judge clearly thinks so and left him with no excuses.
