Overview
- Crewe Magistrates' Court imposed an indefinite restraining order that bars any contact with Adam Rickitt, his wife, and other named victims.
- Ron Kleihues received a 12-month community order with 30 days of rehabilitation activity, a £180 fine, and £472 in costs and surcharge.
- In a recorded conversation recounted in court, Kleihues admitted watching child porn and said he fantasised about raping a child.
- Rickitt said the year-long harassment brought letters, social posts, and uninvited pub visits, and it forced safety steps and an incident where he restrained the man to protect staff.
- A June hearing will follow his guilty plea to decide whether a stalking protection order is imposed.
