Woman held for noisy sex 'breach'

apeZ · 12 Jul 2009 at 13:41

BBC news said:
A woman has been remanded in custody accused of breaching an Asbo banning her from being noisy during sex.
Neighbours complained of hearing Caroline Cartwright, 48, groaning and her bed banging against the wall at her home in Washington, Wearside.
Earlier this month she was given a four-year Asbo banning her from making excessive noise anywhere in England.
But she appeared in court on Monday, charged with three breaches of her Asbo in just 10 days.
She was remanded in custody until 5 May.
Cartwright was convicted of five breaches of a noise abatement notice on 17 April and fined £515.
But Houghton le Spring Magistrates' Court heard police arrested her on 18 April, on 22 April and again on 26 April, after reports from neighbours she was flouting the ban with her husband Steve.
Prosecutor Claire Ward said neighbours complained to police about early morning noises including shouting and groaning coming from the Cartwrights' home in Hall Road, Concord, Washington.
Cartwright elected to be tried by jury and the case will be transferred to Newcastle Crown Court at a later date.

I never knew you could get ASBOs for noisy sex

Strife212 · 12 Jul 2009 at 13:42

You can get an ASBO for anything, that's the point of them. Pretty useless though

Good to see that the courts are using their time wisely.

Why not just buy her a ball gag

Hmm,
House gets broken into: police response time = 2hours
Oh no's, some ones having sex! : police response time = every available unit in under 3 mins!

Not as good as the psni last week....

Party house response=10 mins
Cash machine robbery (with a jcb)= 12 hours!

There's been a few threads on this, but that's what happens when you dredge up a news article from months ago...

They go for the soft targets a lot of the time for their figures is my bet

Just Google'd and she looks like a *****.

No1newts · 12 Jul 2009 at 15:40

Probably is.

The area isnt too far from me and on the whole its a dive

Glaucus · 12 Jul 2009 at 15:40

It's no different to any other excessive noise.

Noisey neighbors are hell and I'm glad the police can now do something about it. why didn't she simply move her bed away from the wall and keep it down a bit. Or install some sound proofing.

Grimley · 12 Jul 2009 at 15:42

Nothing new really, I remember another woman getting an ASBO for the same thing a couple of years ago.

Anti-social behaviour is a good use of the courts time. All the 'victimless' crimes that are prosecuted are far more of a waste.

Brings back a bad link my friend sent me.

LOL, the woman next door to us gets a good knocking and its quite audible. The thing is though, whoever shes seeing is giving her far too high expectations. Goes on for hours, unless shes got some machinery or 10 people with her (I hope so)

Maybe I should report her, but then we like to see if we can drown it out

Record it and play it back to them through the wall.
