A man charged with harassing his ex-lawyers is now pretending that they manufacture tiny dildos.

Jonathan Sherwood claims that the London law firm, which RollOnFriday is not naming, "turned him over" after he was "ripped off" by Hewlett Packard. The UK firm and another Austrian firm acted for Sherwood in connection with a deal to sell a technology he claims to have invented which automates the way the unemployed sign on. When the transaction went sour, Sherwood sued HP. Then he turned his attention to his lawyers.

Sherwood, 53, was arrested in August by City of London police and charged with harassment and racially aggravated harassment of lawyers working at the UK firm. He told RollOnFriday, "I did do some things". Sherwood said he contacted its staff over Twitter and Facebook and called them "scumbag lawyers". Explaining why he was charged with racial harassment, he told RollOnFriday one lawyer, "has a really long name, an Indian name, and on one occasion I said, 'I want to speak to, I can't remember his name, that Paki guy'. That's what I said. On one occasion. If that's racial harassment, I've got to say, I'm guilty".

Sherwood’s bail conditions forbid him from contacting or mentioning the firm or its lawyers on social media. But he told RollOnFriday he was circumventing the rules with his latest creation:


 
  This ain't your grandaddy's green ink

Sherwood said, "I'm not allowed to do anything on social media, but as far as I'm concerned I'm not. And the advert I've done is an advert for dildos".

In April, Sherwood created a mock-up of the Austrian firm's website in which he subtly altered its 'vision statement' to, "f*cking their clients over once they arrive in our dirty scum bag country". He also gave its lawyers new phone numbers such as "1800 CALLMEFORCOKE" and, instead of a map to the office, gave the instruction, "follow the smell of sh*t".

Sherwood said, "I don't know whether I need therapy or don't need therapy, but I'm very angry still". When RollOnFriday told him the identity of the UK firm would be redacted from coverage, he expressed considerable disappointment that "the name of the dirty douchebags, the fucking absolute c**ts that deserve burning", would not be publicised.
