A man ranted in court and demanded a "retrial" after hurling vile homophobic abuse towards his neighbour.
Gabriel Genesis, of Alexandra Park, appeared before Liverpool Crown Court on Wednesday after he made his neighbour's life a "misery". After Genesis discovered his neighbour, who the ECHO has chosen not to name, was of the LGBTQ community, he subjected him to several months of harassment in 2020.
Prosecuting, Ken Grant, said Genesis, who was found guilty at a trial earlier this year, lived next to the man and subjected him to homophobic abuse on several occasions. The court heard how he would often shout "gay, gay gay".
