A bully described by his own daughter as 'a bad man' subjected his ex-girlfriend to months of harassment, leaving her isolated, terrified and too scared to go to work, a court heard.
James Casey had been in a relationship with Keeley Wood, 28, for around 10 years and the pair were living together. But 31-year-old Casey refused to accept their separation last December and began calling Ms Wood hundreds of times a week and turning up at her home, said prosecutors.
During one incident, which was captured on a CCTV camera Ms Wood had fitted as a result of Casey's behaviour, he was seen making the 'I'm watching you' gesture through her window in the early hours of the morning, magistrates were told.
