A woman has been placed on the sex offenders register and been ordered to attend counselling after licking an MSP’s neck.
Elspeth Wood approached a member of the Scottish Parliament while they were out campaigning for the general election on May 27, 2024.
She made a sexual comment towards the MSP before hugging and licking them on the neck.
The 57-year-old pled guilty to acting in a threatening and abusive manner towards an elected official, an offence under Section 38(1) of the Criminal Justice and Licensing (Scotland) Act 2010, in February.
…
A non-harassment order, stopping her from contacting her victim, was also granted for a three-year period.
The sheriff accepted the prosecutor’s submissions that there was a significant sexual element to the offence, and placed Wood on the sex offenders register for the same period.
Yeah, that’s not very typical. I’d like to make that point.
Was the MSP in the environment at the time?
Well, the MSP was towed outside the environment.
What a dumb ass
feels a bit overkill tbh
Sexualising assault is only ok on men? Got it.
The MSP is a woman.
Shame, men’s sa should be treated the same not as a joke
somehow i think he’ll survive
It is. Ridiculous.
- Unwanted sexual comments
- Nonconsensual sexual contact.
Sounds like sexual harassment to me.
