Melissa Abolina pushed her husband into traffic and wrote RIP on his Facebook page, a court heard.
Melissa Abolina pleaded guilty to controlling and coercive behaviour at Lincoln Crown CourtMelissa Abolina, 27, of St Andrews Street, Lincoln admitted controlling and coercive behaviour towards her partner and a second charge of malicious communication towards a former neighbour.Prosecutor David Allan told the court that Abolina bit her husband on the cheek during their honeymoon in Cyprus causing him to lock himself in the bathroom.
An audio recording of threats made by Abolina during a conversation with her husband was played to the court."I don't want you alive, I don't like you."She also made further false allegations about her husband on Facebook and contacted his employer. An impact statement from the victim described how he was forced to move, adding: "I did not know what she was capable of and was living in fear."It said: "I will kill your dog and kick your doors in," Mr Allan told the court.That victim was left in fear of opening her front door, Mr Allan added.
Passing sentence, Judge Philip Head said he was willing to accept that Abolina's responsibility was substantially reduced by her own mental difficulties."It was clearly persistent and prolonged," Judge Head said. In addition to her custodial sentence, Abolina has been banned from contacting her husband and ex-neighbour for five years.
