Daniel Coleman has lost an appeal against his four-and-half year jail sentence with a permanent restraining order for harassing a woman and her family over a four year period in Derby. Coleman began to stalk the victim after she refused to enter into a relationship with him, and he threw a brick through her window threatening to "slaughter" her and her friends like pigs. He also sent her an envelope containing a rifle bullet with a note that read, "I have a bullet for each of you"; sent her text messages; created a social media site account in the name of a serial killer; wrote threats on the wall of the cinema at which she was employed; and sent a video to her mother which contained modified photographs of the woman and her sister being beheaded by axe and shot in the head. Police recovered photographs of Coleman dressed as a Nazi and holding a gun during a search of his home. The victim moved house three times in order to escape the harassment, and the Criminal Appeal Court rejected his appeal for a sentence reduction.
