A stalker made sick fake porn pics of her victim and bombarded her with hundreds of 'derogatory and grossly offensive' messages, a court heard. Leah Dipnall also set up social media accounts claiming the workplace of mental health therapist Katie Cooling was a 'nonce house' where staff groomed residents for sex.
During a vile six week campaign of terror Dipnall, 24, also changed the online description of the Ms Cooling's private therapy business to 'sex toy shop' and on one day alone sent 187 emails saying 'Die b****'. Manchester Minshull Street Crown Court heard Dipnall became 'fixated' with Ms Cooling after she moved out of a domestic abuse hostel in Stockport, where the victim worked, in October 2021.
Between October 11 and November 27 that year, Dipnall sent the victim hundreds of emails, social media messages, letters and cards. They included a greeting card with details of Ms Cooling's place of birth, mother's maiden name and former place of work.
