A NEWPORT schizophrenic who threatened to kill a young girl he had a sex with has been jailed.

Noel Beese, 41, had previously been jailed for four years for the inappropriate relationship with the schoolgirl, who he made pregnant.

But revengeful Beese told probation officers he would kill the girl and her mother while he served his term at Usk Prison, Cardiff Crown Court heard.

During an interview with the two officers Beese said: "This is her fault I'm in here. I want to kill her."

Beese went on to say he had killed three people during the outburst, adding he couldn't wait to get out of prison to do "some serious damage".

Police later interviewed him about the threats he had made but he became abusive towards an officer, said prosecutor Ieuan Bennett.

After being released from prison earlier this year, Beese went to visit his parents.

He stopped at the Dragonfly pub on the outskirts of Newport and got into fights with a member of staff, a patron and a police officer.

He punched the woman behind the bar when she refused to serve him alcohol and then assaulted a patron who tried to intervene.

Regulars managed to make him leave but he then turned on PC Dominic Lonergan, who he punched, fracturing his nose.

The police officer was forced to use pepper spray to restrain him.

Jailing him for a total of three years and four months Judge RF Rowland said: "You have an appalling record.

"There are 15 pages of previous convictions going back to 1995 involving many offences of threatening behaviour and assaulting police officers, I am told 17 in all."

Beese, now of Lewis Street, Cardiff, pleaded guilty to two counts of threatening to take revenge at Usk Prison on March 5, 2014.

He also pleaded guilty to two counts of battery and one count of causing actual bodily harm against a police officer.

Judge Rowland jailed him for one year for each offence of threatening to take revenge, to run concurrently and two years for the assault on the police officer and four months for attacking bar staff, to run concurrently.

His barrister Hilary Roberts said Beese had been harbouring feelings of revenge as he thought he been led into a relationship with the girl by deceit.

The court heard that his client had a history of schizophrenia and anti-social personality disorder.

The Argus reported how Beese was jailed for four years in December 2013 following a relationship with a Gwent schoolgirl.

Beese will have to serve up to half his new custodial term before he may be released on licence.
