‘Leave him alone or go to prison’ man who harassed Wolverhampton Tory MP is warned
A man whose abusive actions led to an MP moving house has been warned he will be sent to prison if he goes to the politician's home in future.
Self-employed renovator Clive Bowden was convicted of harassing Wolverhampton South West MP Stuart Anderson by sending a string of abusive emails to and shouting at his staff.
Bowden, of Merridale Lane, Chapel Ash, blamed depression for his behaviour and said he had been ignored by several agencies including the NHS when he asked for help, and contacting the Mr Anderson was a last straw.
The case related to incidents between September 1, 2021 and March 31 last year.
Sentencing Bowden, Deputy Chief Magistrate Tan Ikram said: "I truly hope that we never meet again. I hope you will work with the probation officer and get resolution for your issues.
"You honestly do not want to meet me again.
