A woman has been jailed for a second time for breaching court orders intended to stop her harassing council house tenants.
Mia Rock has been jailed for two months by Lincoln County Court.
South Holland District Council says it follows an injunction taken out in August ‘following incidents of anti-social behaviour which seriously impacted the lives of council tenants in the Spalding area’.
A council spokesman said: “The court order banned her from certain places and from contacting anyone involved in the case, either directly or through someone else.
“The council’s Housing and Safer Communities teams led the case, working closely with affected tenants and Lincolnshire Police to gather evidence, secure the injunction and take enforcement action when breaches occurred.
“At the hearing, Mia Rock pleaded guilty to the breaches of the injunction. The civil Injunction will remain in force following release from custody, continuing to provide protection for residents.”
The council has not said where the details of the most recent harassment order, including how long it lasts.
Back in 2023 Rock breached such an order after an injunction was placed on her and three other people from Severn Road, Nene Court, Wensum Close and Thames Road in Spalding.
Court documents state she’d been involved in ‘Mate Crime’ which involves befriending someone who is vulnerable with the intention of exploiting them.
After being found to have breached that injunction in 2023 she received a four-month jail term.
Coun Tracey Carter, SHDC portfolio holder for strategic and operational housing, said: “I would like to thank the tenants for working with our teams for providing evidence and reporting incidents to us.
“This is a positive outcome and the tenants can now live happier in their homes.
“This outcome demonstrates the effectiveness and the commitment of all partners to respond to anti-social behaviour in our communities and take action when breaches occur.”
South Holland Neighbourhood Policing Sergeant Callum Corder said: “This case highlights the value of our close collaboration with local partners, enabling us to take coordinated action to protect residents and reduce the impact of antisocial behaviour on the community.”
