The tone of this article is a bit off to me, with a few quotes where this guy is talking about things like a ‘witch hunt’ against him and the claim that he’s ‘anti-establishment’ - a nebulous term at best. It’s worth noting that this man is noted mostly for his criminal offences, not his broadcasting career and certainly not a YouTube channel he subsequently set up. 2A01:B340:84:3A7:FDBA:ACE2:9BFA:6E55 (talk) 17:02, 1 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
The maximum penalty for a single count of stalking has been ramped up in previous years (it only became a criminal offence in 2012 with a maximum term of five years, and this was increased to ten years in 2017), and he was convicted on four counts, so probably not. This guy got 9 years, and you can find multiple examples of people getting 1-3 year terms for single counts. Black Kite (talk)12:09, 28 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
What's missing from the article is the nature of the stalking but it doesn't provide the reason you're looking for. It consisted entirely of posting on the internet. Belfield never physically stalked any of the victims.
