A man who bombarded the Jewish Chronicle with hundreds of “vile, abusive and antisemitic” phone calls, has been jailed for 10 months.
William James Hannaford, 57, of Euston, who called JC staff “fucking parasites” and “mosquitoes”, was also given a restraining order after repeatedly calling the paper’s central London offices.
Hannaford, who had long grey hair and a beard, had to be led from the courtroom after he shouted at the judge: “You call this British justice!” following his sentencing on Monday at the Old Bailey.
Hannaford’s calls took place between March 22 and April 10 last year and were recorded and sent to the police.
