A man has been jailed after pleading guilty to a series of offences, including one in relation to a camera in a woman's bedroom.
Jason Pearson, of Bury Road, Breightmet, appeared at Manchester Magistrates' Court on Wednesday, November 4, where he admitted to four offences.
The 35-year-old pleaded guilty to criminal damage to property, stalking without fear/alarm/distress, and threat to damage property.
He damaged a fence belonging to a woman on April 10, and stalked her between April 6 and April 16 by placing a camera in her bedroom, making unwanted contact, and visiting her address twice.
He also made unwanted contact with another woman between April 14 and April 16.
On April 14, he threatened to set fire to a vehicle belonging to the first woman mentioned.
He was sentenced to a prison term and ordered to pay £85 in costs to the Crown Prosecution Service.
Magistrates imposed a total custodial sentence of 24 weeks.
The sentence comprised a 12-week jail term for stalking and a further consecutive 12-week term for threatening to destroy property.

Sentences for the remaining offences, including criminal damage and a second stalking offence, were ordered to run concurrently.
The court said the offences were so serious that only an immediate custodial sentence could be justified and described them as serious domestic abuse offences.
A restraining order was also made against him.
