A funeral director who carried out a ten year campaign of abuse against his neighbours has been branded as “despicable” by a sheriff.
William Main harassed neighbours Derek and Linda Thomson by setting off fireworks, shining a torch into their home and firing an air rifle towards their garden in Dunbar, East Lothian.
Main, 63, also made false reports to the police and the local authority about his neighbours and deliberately used power tools at his home knowing the couple were working nightshift.
