PERVERT WHO GROPED GRAN IN BISHOPBRIGGS GIVEN UNPAID WORK
A sleazy pervert who left a grandmother frozen in her home after he groped her has been ordered to do 150 hours of unpaid work.Stuart Milligan, 67, preyed upon the 60-year-old at the property in Bishopbriggs, East Dunbartonshire, on August 29, 2024.
Milligan was found guilty at Glasgow Sheriff Court to sexual assault.
A charge of directing sexual verbal communication was found not guilty by Sheriff Joanna McDonald.
The sheriff today put Milligan on the sex offenders register as well as supervision for 18 months on top of the unpaid work.
The court previously heard from the victim who works at a bank as a credit controller.
She stated she picked up her grandchildren from school on the day of the incident.
On the way home, she came across Milligan — who she knew through her husband.
Milligan offered the woman an umbrella and pushed her pram home.
The woman told the court that Milligan made a comment about her breasts which made her feel "disgusted." She stated that Milligan came across as "sarcastic, arrogant and a sleazebag." The woman said they did not speak further until she arrived home.
Milligan entered the property and put his arm around the woman's shoulder.
She said: "He was rubbing my shoulder - I can't remember what he was saying.
He moved his hand and put it on my bum and started rubbing up and down and I froze.
He got my other hand and kissed me on the cheek - he took my other hand and kissed me on the lips." Prosecutor Danielle Docherty asked how she felt and she replied: "Numb, frozen, I didn't know what to think, I was thinking what is happening here?" Miss Docherty asked how the kiss made her feel—she replied: "Disgusted - I am a happily married woman of 40 years and I don't want to be kissed by anyone." She added Milligan entered her property, touched her inappropriately, and forced kisses on her.
She described feeling "hysterical" after Milligan left and going to her neighbor's house with her grandchild.
