flag A UK woman got a suspended 12-month sentence for arson and threats after targeting a former partner’s home, causing fear and trauma.

flag A 31-year-old woman from Mistley, Hayley Fillingham, was given a suspended 12-month sentence after setting fire to another woman’s home and sending death threats on July 29, 2024, in a case tied to a shared ex-partner. flag Prosecutors said she placed a flammable item through the victim’s letterbox and banged on the door, causing the victim—whose two-year-old son was inside—to flee due to fear. flag The victim suffered lasting psychological distress. flag Fillingham initially pleaded not guilty but changed her plea after a psychiatric evaluation revealed mental health issues, though the judge found her mentally capable at the time. flag The sentence was suspended for two years due to her low risk of reoffending and the impact on her children. flag She must complete 30 rehabilitation days and pay £500 in compensation.
