his mom?!?According to court records, after earning the man’s trust, the 30-year-old mother of three turned the tables on him by saying she was going to out him to his family.Subscribe to our daily newsletter for a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.“You’ll do well to remember what I have on you,” she wrote. “I have kept my mouth shut to hide what and who you really are.”She also called him homophobic slurs and threatened to share videos of him in sexual situations, including one recorded at a gay bathhouse.
This went on from August 2021 until March 2023, when Pollitt kicked her cruely up a notch and tracked down the man’s mother then told her that her son was bisexual. “If you don’t believe me, make a profile on FabGuys and click ‘near me’ when he’s in the house,” she wrote in a text message obtained by police.After the man’s mother confronted him, he suffered an anxiety attack and attempted to take his own life.This week at Liverpool Crown Court, Pollitt pleaded guilty to two counts of disclosing or threatening to disclose private sexual images and one count of malicious communications.
In a victim’s statement, the man told the court: “At the time I was not ready to come out as bisexual as I didn’t feel comfortable doing so.
It was a struggle to come to terms with my sexuality. Due to what Pollitt has done, I never had the chance to come out in my own time on my own terms, which is something she has taken from me.”Meanwhile, Pollitt’s attorney, Kate Morley, said, prior to all this, she had an “unblemished criminal record.”“She’s devastated to be appearing in crown court for to first time in her life,” Morely argued. “She simply wasn’t thinking in her normal, logical and sensible way, and that was exacerbated by having to look after three children.”Blaming the children?
