A SAUCHIE teen threatened to murder his mum during a barrage of abuse.

As reported in the Advertiser previously, the 17-year-old, who cannot be named due to legal reasons, admitted sending offensive messages via social media between March 9-10 this year.

Fiscal depute Graham McLachlan explained that an allegation had been made, which then led to the abusive remarks.

The youngster wrote to his mother: “I’m no a beast, you Paki b**tard”, “I swear to f**k, I’m gonna murder you, ya wee cow”, and “I’m no a f**king paedo, ya wee Paki black cow”.

The accused admitted sending the messages when he was interviewed by the police.

On Thursday at Alloa Sheriff Court, Sheriff James Macdonald remitted the case to Children’s Hearing Scotland.
