Woman sobs as she's jailed for sending messages to a dog on Facebook

A woman who threatened to kill her ex partner after being banned from contacting him has appeared in court again.

Paula Higham, 38, appeared at Liverpool Crown Court on Thursday after breaching the terms of a suspended sentence imposed in August last year after she breached a non-molestation order by messaging her ex's dog on Facebook. Higham, of Sandringham Drive, Sefton Park, also threatened to kill her former partner, and issued threats towards his mum, calling her “rough”, adding “she will be looking worse soon”.

In August 2021, she was handed a non-molestation order by the family courts preventing her from contacting her ex Mark Davies for one year. Recorder Tim Harrington handed Higham a one-year imprisonment suspended for 18 months and ordered her to complete 100 hours of unpaid work plus a 20-day rehabilitation activity requirement.
