Premium Content A MANIPULATIVE stalker showed little remorse as he was led from the dock into custody. The 24-year-old father who launched a shocking campaign of control and intimidation over his de facto partner and the mother of his child was heard muttering this is a joke as he left the courtroom. Jeremy Matthew Nicholas de Haan faced the Townsville District Court on Friday where he pleaded guilty to unlawful stalking in contravention of a court order, contravening a domestic violence order (aggravated offence), breaching bail and possessing dangerous drugs. Crown prosecutor Sally Dreghorn said there was a history of domestic violence between de Haan and his now former partner, which included incidents where he would confiscate her phone and threaten self harm if she told anyone.
