Daniel Ogilvie was refused entry into his Main Street home by his mother on March 15, due to being drugged-up which scared her.

The 33-year-old thug repeatedly called his mum and sent her messages in the small hours of the morning in a bid to convince her to let him in and when she refused, he called her a “vile boot.”
