A thug who made outrageous threats to kill probation officers who were trying to assist him, pulled his trousers down and revealed his backside to a judge after being jailed.
Stephen McEvoy made several threats to slit and slice the throats of people who were being appointed to help him on his release from prison, including sexual comments about a female probation officer.
As McEvoy was being sentenced at Newcastle Crown Court via a video-link to prison, he was muted because he interjected, and yelled that the prosecutor was a "sick ************" for outlining his disgusting behaviour.
