His mother stated O’Neil’s behaviour has left her with depression.
John Evans, defending, said O’Neil has alcohol problems but this case has been a wake-up call and he no longer wishes to live with his mother.
O’Neil was sentenced to a 12-month community order with rehabilitation and must pay £85 costs, an £85 victim surcharge and £50 compensation. He was given a 12-month restraining order.
