A WOMAN threatened to cut her ex-boyfriend "all over" and tried to disconnect the gas supply at his home in an act of revenge after taking their break up badly.
Troubled Jayne Stone was given a restraining order after being accused of criminal damage after the pair split in 2014.
But that didn't stop her making a series of terrifying threats towards her ex-partner – including one on Facebook which said "steal from my kids, I will cut you all over" – causing him to live in fear of what she might do to him and his two young children, Kent Online reports.
When the dad returned to his home in West Malling, Kent, from work one evening in January he found Stone had written in indelible green ink on his door: "You are going to jail – jail, jail, jail. We are going to get you. You are going to die."
Maidstone Crown Court heard yesterday that despite Stone's former boyfriend complaining in February 2015 that the 43-year-old had breached the restraining order several times, they threats continued and became more and more "sinister".
After accusing him of cruelty towards his dog in a series of vile Facebook posts and calling the cops on him, prosecutor Robert Forrest told the court more threats were daubed on the man's front door, as well as scratches showing it had obviously been "keyed".
Worst of all on January 31, the prosecutor said, the ex-boyfriend was contacted by the mother of his two young children, who told him she had found the gas box open and attempts had been made to pull out the pipes.
Shortly afterwards he saw her hiding behind a fence and discovered the gas box had been tampered with again.
“He said he had been caused distress and anxiety and was getting concerned about the safety of him and his children, who had to leave the property because of his actions,” said Mr Forrest.

“He suffers from epilepsy and a seizure was brought on by her actions.”
Stone admitted she wanted her ex dead because he left her and had interfered with his gas box because she wanted him “blown up”.
A probation officer told the court that Stone accepted she had gone about things "the wrong way" and "needed help", while Nazmeem Imambaccus, defending, said Stone had been depressed and anxious at the time of making the threats.
“I am not trying to excuse her behaviour,” she said.
“Two years have passed since the offences and she has done her best to move forward.”
She has since moved to Essex where her children were living with the father.
Stone, of Regents Way, Kings Hill, West Malling, admitted breaching the restraining order, assaulting a woman and causing criminal damage, was spared jail and sentenced to 12 months suspended for two years with 150 hours unpaid work.
Judge Philip Statman told her: “There was sinister and significant behaviour in that on separate occasions it would appear you tampered with his gas box.
“It is sinister because you made remarks about what should happen to him. You wished him to die.
“The threats you were making caused him to genuinely believe he was unsafe as he went about his everyday life.”
Stone will be under a curfew from 8pm to 8am for six months and a restraining order was made for seven years.
