Jack Keegan, 33, was sentenced to one year in prison at Bromley Magistrates' Court on 30 October 2026, following a campaign of harassment that included breaking into a woman's home. Keegan pleaded guilty to harassing the woman between 8 September and 18 September 2026.

Court documents detail that on 8 September 2026, Keegan used violence to gain entry to the victim's residence. Ten days later, he initiated a severe barrage of contact, calling the woman 32 times within a 30-minute window and sending her threatening and abusive messages.

The magistrates who heard the case concluded that a prison sentence was the only appropriate outcome due to the "serious and unprovoked" nature of Keegan's actions. The Met Police provided the image of Keegan used in reporting.
