Jessica Meehan, of no fixed abode, appeared at Plymouth Crown Court following an initial incident on Alma Road on May 5 this year.
Police were alerted by 999 calls about a woman matching Meehan’s description who was seen with a knife. Police traced her, and she was arrested after a member of the public who had walked past Meehan found a large kitchen knife hidden under a hedge.
At the following court hearing in May, Judge Peter Johnson heard how Meehan, a former Army soldier, had a long history of being in possession of bladed articles in public, with 11 convictions for 22 offences. He was told she had received a number of short prison sentences, but each had got longer over the years.
The court was told Meehan – who was jailed in 2021 for speeding and was later discharged from the Army – was later released on licence and resided in approved premises, but was recalled to prison when a knife was found on her bedside table. She was released on April 11 this year but was arrested just a few weeks later, on May 5.
