A ROSYTH man landed himself in trouble after making an abusive phone call to his former partner.
Dean Clark was upset after seeing a post on social media.
Clark, 26, of Kings Road, appeared in the dock at Dunfermline Sheriff Court.
He admitted that on January 5, he shouted and swore during a phone call to his former partner.
Depute fiscal Laura McManus said the former partner received a phone call from Clark and he was “clearly upset”.
She went on: “He was shouting and swearing about something he’d seen on social media.”
During the call, he called her a “cow”, “bitch” and told her to “f*** off”, the court heard.
Defence solicitor James Moncrieff said his client became upset after seeing a video on social media in which his son was holding the hand of his ex-partner’s new boyfriend.
“He was upset and contacted her after consuming alcohol. It was an error of judgement on his part,” added the solicitor.
Sheriff James Macdonald deferred sentence on Clark until April 21 for him to be of good behaviour.
