Ghoul who raided Clutha for charity cash after helicopter crash terrorised woman

A ghoul who stole from a Clutha helicopter tragedy fundraiser has been spared jail for hounding a woman.

Charmaine Holmes threatened to leak intimate videos of the victim over a three-week period.

Holmes, 25, who raided the disaster-hit pub in the wake of the 2013 helicopter tragedy, targeted the woman last July.

The case was heard at Paisley Sheriff Court. (Paisley Daily Express)

Paisley Sheriff Court heard she repeatedly attended the woman's home in Johnstone, Renfrewshire, and behaved aggressively towards her.

She also sent her a number of text messages threatening to "disclose" videos of the woman "in an intimate situation".

Holmes, of Paisley, admitted her guilt over the offence and was placed under supervision for two years.
