Glenn Mullen posted online death threats to the Harry Potter author and former MP Rosie Duffield.
An internet troll who posted "chilling" online messages threatening to kill Harry Potter author JK Rowling and former MP Rosie Duffield has been sentenced.
He admitted two charges of sending an article conveying threatening messages at an earlier hearing and was handed two suspended sentences.Chief magistrate Paul Goldspring said Mullen's actions were part of a "modern phenomena" of people "hiding behind a keyboard to threaten, abuse or harass people in the public eye".
The court heard the messages made Ms Duffield, who is Labour's general election candidate in Canterbury, feel "nervous walking around her constituency, where she was visible and easily accessible". He also ordered Mullen to complete a 12-month community order, including 20 days rehabilitation activity and a requirement to complete 150 hours of unpaid work.
