A Sydney man has been sentenced to jail after he emailed his ex-girlfriend a picture of his bloodied genitalia and sent naked photos of her to his other ex-girlfriend.
A Sydney man has been sentenced to jail after he emailed his ex-girlfriend a picture of his bloodied genitalia and sent naked photos of her to his other ex-girlfriend.
Zane Alchin, 28, was at the centre of a tumultuous love triangle between former friends when he sent graphic images of his ex-girlfriend HL’s genitalia to his other ex-girlfriend RM via Instagram on December 29 last year.
At the time Alchin was serving an intensive corrections order for slashing up RM’s lingerie worth more than $2000, smashing her phone and snapping her iPad in half in a jealous rage when they briefly reunited in May 2018 after he and HL broke up in February 2018.
He was also forbidden to contact HL after he was convicted of damaging her car when their relationship ended.
“On December 29 HL received an Instagram direct message from RM saying ‘I thought you had the right to know Zane’s been sending me photos of you’,” police facts stated.
“I’m not trying to start anything, it just pisses me off and you have the right to know.”
RM sent HL screenshots of Alchin’s messages which included a picture of HL’s face with her arm covering her breasts, and another one depicting her vagina and buttocks.
Alchin, who has been on remand since January, pleaded guilty to contravening the apprehended violence order protecting HL and distributing an intimate image without consent.
Sutherland Local Court Magistrate Philip Stewart sentenced Alchin to seven months’ imprisonment on both charges.
The Caringbah man will be eligible for parole on April 30.
Alchin and HL had spent time together in the weeks before their relationship deteriorated again but HL had cut off contact when Alchin sent her dozens of emails between November 11 and December 29.
“On November 15 the victim received 15 emails between 7am and 9.30pm,” police facts stated.
“One of the emails said ‘Do you want sit on my dick tonight?’
“The victim replied, ‘f*** off’.”
Subsequent emails to HL contained a horrifying explicit image of Alchin and an invitation to a graphic sex act typically involving two men and one woman.
“When she opened the email on November 20 she saw a picture of a penis covered what she believed to be blood on a bed,” police facts stated.
“On November 22 another email read ‘Can me and a friend put you on the spit, we will pay you’.”
In 2016 Alchin was found guilty of using a carriage service to menace or harass after he slut-shamed and insulted female Tinder users on Facebook, saying “It’s people like you who make it clear women should never have been given rights.”
