This is the face of a ‘despicable’ stalker who crept into his neighbour’s bedroom while she slept.<\/p>\n
Phillip Robinson, 40, was jailed for two years and three months after pleading guilty to stalking involving serious harm and distress at a previous hearing.<\/p>\n
His terrified victim woke to find him standing at the foot of her bed at around 11.30pm on June 11.<\/p>\n
She shouted, ‘What are you doing? Get out!’ which woke up other family members who forced him out of the house as he repeatedly apologised.<\/p>\n
Robinson had climbed through an unlocked window at the victim’s home in Warboys, Cambridgeshire, and made his way up the stairs, police said.<\/p>\n

Phillip Robinson, 40, was jailed for two years and three months after pleading guilty to stalking<\/p>\n
In a police interview, Robinson said the victim had flirted with him by wearing shorts and because she had talked to him, but confirmed she had never told him her name.<\/p>\n
He said he appeared in her bedroom, as he thought she had sent him a text inviting him, but then admitted he was wrong and he didn’t receive any such message.<\/p>\n
Cambridgeshire Police said Robinson had carried out an escalating campaign of stalking towards the victim in the months before the incident.<\/p>\n
He’d sit on his mobility scooter at the end of his driveway, watching her home and would try to talk to her when she came out, which she tried to avoid.<\/p>\n
Then he started travelling down a communal pathway near her garden and often parked his scooter so it would face her home for about 15 minutes at a time.<\/p>\n
After being arrested in June, he breached his bail conditions several times and was arrested for a continuation of stalking, the force said.<\/p>\n
Robinson was jailed at Peterborough Crown Court on Wednesday after admitting the offences at a previous hearing.<\/p>\n
DC Alan Tregilgas thanked the victim for reporting the incident and said: ‘Robinson’s behaviour was despicable, it was a frightening experience for the victim in her own home where she should feel safe.’<\/p>\n
