A mother has made vicious threats towards her love rival after they both had a baby with the same man has been fined.
Paris Frost, 24, terrified her victim by telling her she would break her legs and burn her house down.
She also verbally abused the woman on the phone and said ‘I will never leave you alone’, Stoke-on-Trent Crown Court heard.
Frost has now been handed a 12-month community order with a rehabilitation activity requirement for 25 days after pleading guilty to stalking causing serious alarm or distress.
She was also made the subject of a restraining order which prevents her from contacting the victim or going to her home for five years.
Prosecutor David Bennett said the victim and the defendant both had a relationship with the same man and both had a child with him which ’caused problems between them’.
On March 27, 2022, the complainant received a message telling her to ‘watch her house’.
On June 3 Frost called her and made further threats to burn down her house.
The victim told her to go away and leave her alone. The defendant said: ‘I will never leave you alone.’
Mr Bennett explained how the victim was so distressed that she moved to her mother’s house.
A message on Facebook under a man’s name said: ‘Sleep with one eye open.’
The court heard the father of both women’s children had his van set on fire. The victim received a message stating: ‘You are next.’
A few minutes later another message said: ‘Your boyfriend is having his two legs broken shortly. I will be doing the same to you. You will be getting your legs snapped.’
Mr Bennett said the victim felt scared and intimidated by the threats made by the defendant.
Frost’s abuse continued with her calling her victim a ‘dirty w****’ in one message and saying she was an alcoholic in another.
Frost was fined £500 and will serve 14 days in prison if she fails to pay.
