A Gold Coast man parked his car out the front of his former psychologist’s workplace for seven weeks but did not try to contact her, a court has been told. Peter Frederick Reynolds yesterday pleaded guilty in the Southport District Court to one count of stalking. It was the second time Reynolds had stalked the same woman. Judge Julie Dick placed Reynolds on a three year probation order with the condition he must undergo any mental health care ordered by probation and parole officers and doctors. Ms Dick said Reynolds conduct would have left the woman in fear. “Even through the defendants may not understand what they are doing, there is an impact that the victim becomes hyper vigilant and it interferes with their day to day lives,” she said. Reynolds’ barrister Nick McGhee, instructed by Buckland Allen Criminal Lawyers, told the court his client suffered mental health issues after being stabbed in 1988. Mr McGhee said Reynolds had become upset after the woman had said she was no longer able to treat him as patient. A conviction was recorded.
