An ex police officer jailed for stalking a married man she became “fixated” with was back in the dock for accessing his bank account.
Ashley Boyd, 27, became obsessed with Kevin O’Connor who is married to her former friend.
Only a month after getting a job with RBS in December 2016, she used her position to repeatedly access his account - while on bail for a stalking charge that she later pled guilty to.
As she awaited sentence, Mr O’Connor was concerned his personal information had been accessed by Boyd and an audit revealed that had been the case.

She hacked Mr O'Connor's social media accounts and sent messages about his “unhappy marriage” to people pretending to be him, and posted an offensive tweet about his wife, Rhona.
Boyd also admitted attempting to pervert the course of justice when she had a friend give a false statement to police taking the blame for the Twitter post in a twisted attempt to divert the blame.
