A violent “cyber stalker” has been jailed after making his pregnant ex girlfriend’s life a misery and beating up his own sister and her partner.
Daniel James Fair, 26, was locked up for 26 weeks at Liverpool Magistrates’ Court after hacking Georgina Brennan’s Facebook, e-mail and Snapchat accounts.
“Game over, you evil b****”
Fair, of Ismay Road in Litherland , also battered his sister Donna Fair, who was a close friend of Miss Brennan, and attacked Miss Fair’s partner Jemma Ako-Parker.
He pleaded guilty to harassment and three charges under the Computer Misuse Act 1990, but was also convicted of the two assaults after a trial.
Lynn Clark, prosecuting, told the court: “Georgina Brennan was in a relationship with the defendant for approximately one year. She states the relationship stopped in June 2015, and she ended it because she was fed up with being lied to. She could not end it face to face because she felt he was very controlling.”
The court heard Fair did not take the end of the relationship well, and began to send unwanted messages to her social media accounts and to the accounts of her parents and brother.
Ms Clark said Fair was blocked from accessing Miss Brennan’s Snapchat and Facebook accounts but retrieved her password details from her emails, which he had access to, before logging in and unblocking himself.
One Snapchat message, from Fair hiding behind a fake account, included a picture of a revolver with the words; “Game over, you evil b****.”
The court heard at one point Miss Brennan was told he was unstable and threatening to kill himself, and police concerned for his welfare asked her to contact him.
She unblocked and asked where he was, and received a message saying: “Have I got your attention now?”
“I feel scared and anxious”
The pair agreed to meet but when Fair arrived police were waiting and detained him for his own safety.
Miss Brennan, who was seven months pregnant with his child, continued to be bombarded with messages and friend requests from fake accounts set up by Fair, and found her passwords had been changed locking her out of her own accounts.
On one occasion, while Miss Brennan was visiting her friend Miss Fair, the defendant pulled up and attempted to get into her car as she reversed away, which was locked.
The court heard Fair also called Miss Brennan and her parents from a withheld number and they heard the sound of heavy breathing when they answered the phone.
In a victim impact statement, read to the court, she said: “Since the relationship ended I have been victim of harassment and he has cyber stalked me while I have been heavily pregnant with his child.
“The effect on my life has been significant, the stress has made me go to the hospital due to concerns about my baby, and I feel scared and anxious.”
Fair was arrested after ignoring a harassment warning from Merseyside Police and continuing to contact Miss Brennan.
A search of his phone and laptop found internet searches for “Computer Misuse act sentences” and “Snapchat delete.”
While on bail for those offences he turned up at Miss Fair’s house on November 2.

Ms Clark said: “The complainant stepped outside to speak to her brother. As she stepped back in he punched her to the right side of her face, and then several more times to the face.
“Miss Ako-Parker ran downstairs and tried to push the defendant out of the house but he punched her to the stomach and kicked her to the legs. He grabbed the back of her neck putting pressure on it and kneed her several times in the chest.”
Peter White, defending, told the court his client, who he said is suicidal and on medication, accepted the offences against Miss Brennan were “cruel and wholly wrong.”
However he said Fair intended to appeal the assault convictions.
Chairman of the bench, Philip Howley, also gave Fair a restraining orders banning all contact with Miss Brennan for five years and with Miss Fair and Miss Ako-Parker for two years.
