A creep who plastered claims over the Internet that his 17-year-old ex-partner had HIV was told by a sheriff that the only thing keeping him out of jail was that he was a first offender.
Robert Fleming, 38, messaged that he would "destroy" the teenager, who had just ended their relationship and told him he had met someone new.
Over a period of nine hours, he sent the youngster 90 text messages.
