Daniel Bannister Jailed Again Over Cheryl Tweedy Breach

Daniel Bannister, 50, who pleaded guilty to manslaughter in 2012, has been jailed for 12 months after admitting breaching a restraining order by turning up at Cheryl Tweedy’s Buckinghamshire home for a fourth time on 19 June. Reading Crown Court imposed the sentence and a fresh restraining order after hearing he arrived by taxi just before 10pm, rang the intercom, peered over the gate and claimed he had been invited via Microsoft Teams. Tweedy’s victim impact statement said she was “stunned” and “terrified,” was forced to hire security, remains “nervous and on edge,” and that the incidents have scared her young son. Judge Alan Blake warned Bannister he posed a high risk of reoffending and said he must “draw a line under” his behaviour; this is Bannister’s third custodial sentence after earlier terms of four months and 16 weeks for similar breaches. Police arrested him from his bail hostel after the June incident and neighbours described him as isolated and paranoid.
