Jail warning for man who sent 'offensive' Facebook messages to ex via friend
A man who sent 'offensive and threatening messages' to a friend of his ex who passed them on to her faces the prospect of going to jail, a court heard.
Rhys David Wills, aged 31, of Langley Crescent, Dawley, in Telford, sent messages via Facebook saying that his ex was 'going to get a good kicking' and that her children would be better 'taken off her'.
Wills, who appeared at Telford Magistrates Court on Wednesday, also told the friend: "I will stop being bored when I strangle the b****."
He asked her to pass the messages on and she did, the court heard.
He pleaded guilty to one charge of sending an indecent or grossly offensive message in Shifnal on July 7, 2023, an offence under the Malicious Communications Act 1988.
