A fake cop tracks, deceives young mothers and makes them think their children are dead. Having committed such an abominable act, the man will face three months in prison.
Man Philip. Anton. Zilner (Phillip Anton Zillner) used social media to track young mothers and pretend to be police, saying their children had been killed by trucks.
On June 6th Philip, 37 years old. Anton. Zilner was sentenced to a further three months in prison. Surveillance footage in South Australia shows the man calling evil from a telephone booth to two mothers in Bararet and Tara Marin.
One of the young mothers was at work when she got a call from Zilner.
Zilner told her two-year-old daughter had died when she fainted on the floor of the office. In fact, her two-year-old daughter was sleeping in the nursery.
"I`m Paul from Emergency Services. Simpson (Paul Simpson), your daughter was knocked down by a truck. I regret to inform you that she`s dead. " He said in one of the calls.
In another call, he called another young mother and said, "your daughter was knocked down by a truck in front of the school."
The mother rushed to her daughter`s primary school and found her alive and unhurt.
But this is for Philip. Anton. Zilner didn`t seem to be enough. He called again later that night to harass the young mothers.
These young mothers are now suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder and cannot understand why they are targeted indiscriminately.
He has a high risk of reoffending.
After the verdict, Zilner told court he was "sorry for what he had done."
After 14 months in custody, he will serve more than 90 days. After serving his sentence, he also needs to attend a two-year community correction service.
In these cases, Zilner knows the names of all the victims and their children, but the young mothers and children do not know him.
In February, Zilner, who suffered from Tourette`s syndrome and autism, pleaded guilty to three counts of intentional injury, three counts of stalking, two counts of threatening and harassing others with communications equipment.
District Court Judge Michael. McNanni (Michael McInerney) called Zilner`s crime "outrageous, very serious and ill-intentioned."
