Man with previous stalking convictions pleaded guilty at Haverfordwest Magistrates’ Court
A PEMBROKESHIRE stalker who repeatedly hounded his victim for more than two years is to be sentenced later this month.
Glen Hunt, 36, pleaded guilty to stalking when he appeared before Haverfordwest Magistrates’ Court this week.
The court heard that between June 2023 and October 2025, Hunt repeatedly targeted a woman by sending multiple messages, making phone calls and leaving voice notes, behaviour which caused her harassment, alarm and distress.
Crown Prosecutor Nia James told District Judge Mark Layton, sitting at Haverfordwest Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday: “This happened over a prolonged period of time between June 2023 and October 2025.”
Miss James said Hunt, of Paynter Street, Pembroke, had previous convictions for similar offences dating back to 2014, 2016 and 2023, involving different female victims.
Sentencing was adjourned until Tuesday, January 28, for probation reports to be prepared.
Hunt was released on conditional bail. Conditions include that he must not contact the victim directly or indirectly and must not attend her address in Pembroke Dock.
