A 34-year-old Wrexham woman has been sentenced to 15 months in prison after a months-long campaign of harassment and assault that targeted a local resident and her child.
Naomi Maybury, from Wheatsheaf Lane, Gwersyllt, pleaded guilty to stalking without fear and assaulting both a witness and a police officer. The harassment began in June following an altercation, escalating to threats and verbal abuse directed at both the victim and her child.
The situation culminated in an unprovoked attack on December 23rd, when Maybury followed the victim home. Upon her arrest, she spat in an officer’s face.
At Mold Crown Court on Thursday, January 30th, Maybury received her prison sentence along with a three-year restraining order to protect the victim and her child.
Investigating officer Zoe Harrison said: “Maybury’s harassment, intimidation and violent behaviour caused considerable distress to the victim and her family, instilling a sense of insecurity and removing their feeling of safety, which has had a profound and lasting impact.
“I commend the victim for her bravery in coming forward to ensure Maybury was held accountable for her actions.
“I hope this case serves as a reminder that harassment and violence will not be tolerated, and that we will deal robustly with anyone who sees fit to assault police officers.”
