The contact breached a restraining order imposed on the 48-year-old which came into force on her release from prison. She was convicted in 2018.

A court heard Mosdell, of Lobelia Close in Gillingham, sent 56 texts and social media messages to the victim between March 7 and June 11 this year.

The messages contained threats made to him and his family and several public comments on social media.

She was arrested and charged on June 15.

Mosdell appeared at Canterbury Crown Court and was jailed for one year on Friday after pleading guilty to two counts of breaching a restraining order.

The order banned her from any contact with her ex-partner.

It was imposed after she was found guilty two years ago of stalking with fear of violence and harassment.

She served a four-month and three-week prison sentence.

Mosdell has now been issued another restraining order lasting indefinitely and preventing her from going within 250m of the victim's address or where he is staying.

She will also be banned from contacting him directly or anyone associated with him.

Investigating officer PC Claire Peirson said: "Harassment is a serious offence which should not be taken lightly.

"This kind of behaviour negatively affects a person’s day to day quality of life and puts the victim under constant stress and fear

"We will always put together the strongest case to achieve the best result for the person being targeted."
