Pig's Head Ex Jailed For Stalking

A jealous woman, who sent a pig’s head to the restaurant owned by her ex-partner’s new girlfriend, has been jailed for fifteen months.

Tia McBean, 33, was a constant nuisance, shouting and screaming outside her ex-boyfriend’s address, phoning him and his girlfriend repeatedly and ordering unwanted pizzas and taxis.


She also made an offensive comment on a Trip Advisor online review of the Brixton restaurant as she continued flouting restraining orders, prohibiting contact with the couple.


The single-mum, of Besson Street, New Cross pleaded guilty at Woolwich Crown Court to seven breaches of a court-imposed restraining order between May 7, 2019 and March 7, last year.


She also pleaded guilty to stalking ex-boyfriend Oralton Robinson - the father of her child - and his new girlfriend between November 5, 2018 and March 8, 2020.


McBean also admitted one count of harassing and one count of sending offensive communications to another woman between July 31 and August 6, last year.


She further pleaded guilty to the racially-aggravated criminal damage of a door at Mr Robinson’s address.


Judge Ruth Downing told her: “Matters reached a very, very unpleasant stage when you sent to her restaurant in Brixton a package that a staff member opened that had a pig’s head inside.


“That really was gratuitous spite and the victim was particularly upset, seeing that item in a box.”


McBean has been locked-up since last August for continuing to flout court orders and her lawyer James Hasslacher said: “This is a tragic combination of unstable personality disorder, dealing with a pregnancy and break-up of a relationship.


“Mr Robinson himself has a conviction for assaulting Ms McBean. This was a toxic relationship.”


The judge told McBean, who will be released from custody in mid-March: “Adults should be able to bring a relationship to an end without fear of reprisals.


"There has been attendance to properties you were banned from, where you made a disturbance to the annoyance of neighbours and the complainants and there was criminal damage.”
