Jason Leslie Carpenter of Mortimer Street, Mudgee, was charged on August 29, 2017, following an argument with the victim.
He followed them into their house yelling and slamming the door, before clenching his fists and threatening to “burn the house down” and “put you six feet under” if they called the police.
Magistrate Bruce Williams warned Carpetner, “if you keep breaching these orders the court is going to have to ask ‘what can we do to ram home to you the seriousness of these offences?’”
