A son threatened to put his mother's "head through a window" after she refused to let him use her car before smashing a mirror and telling her "This will be your f****** head". He also left her threatening voice mail messages in which he called her a "horrible c***".
On March 8, Connor Webber, 26, of Merthyr Tydfil, asked his mother Claire for a lift to a shop and told her he was taking her car. She told him she would phone the police if he did as he didn't have a licence.
A sentencing hearing at Merthyr Tydfil Crown Court on Tuesday heard Webber responded: "Phone them, I don't give a f***, tell them to hurry up, I'll put your head through the window". He left the room but the victim heard smashing noises in another part of the house.
