He sent abusive messages and emails and made threats to share “intimate” videos. The 23-year-old admitted harassment when he appeared at Brighton Magistrates’ Court.
Jackman, of Founthill Road, Saltdean, committed the crime over a “prolonged” period between November last year and May.
Magistrates jailed Jackman for 16 weeks and put him under a restraining order. He must also pay a £115 surcharge and £160 costs.
