OLDEST SCOTTISH STALKER AVOIDS JAIL AFTER PESTERING EX-PARTNER
SCOTLAND'S oldest stalker has been spared jail for a second time after pestering the woman who dumped him for a younger man.
Eighty-one year old Andrew Trimble was given a non-harrassment order last year for stalking May Fernie, 79.
He was annoyed when she told him she had met someone else - toyboy Harry Kennedy, 78.
But, less than two months after being in court, he flouted the order and phoned the pensioner from his local pub - swearing at her and calling her names.
Trimble, from Garrowhill, Glasgow appeared in the city's sheriff court last month, where he pled guilty to a second stalking charge between June and July last year.
Sheriff Anthony Deutch told the OAP: 'I ought to be sending you to prison, I take account of your age therefore I am going to impose a period of supervision which will last for nine months.'
