A Pennsylvania man is facing a contempt of court case after allegedly “liking” 22 photos and videos on a woman’s Facebook page.
That’s because a court order prohibited Justin Bellanco, 26, from contacting April Holland, the Times Leader reports.
In a protection-from-abuse application in the Luzerne County case she said Bellanco had stalked and harassed her and threatened to shoot her kneecap so he could see her suffer.
Pittston police also alleged that Bellanco had been seen by an officer near Holland’s residence.
After his arraignment, Bellanco was released on $5,000 unsecured bond.
