Liam Goodenough, a star of AFTV also commonly known as Arsenal Fan TV has had his prison sentence increased from 1 year to 3 years for violent stalking.

This comes after his case was referred to the Court of Appeal under the Unduly Lenient Sentence (ULS) scheme, to which the court of appeal found his initial sentence to be unduly lenient and tripled it to three years.

Speaking on the matter, Solicitor General, Alex Chalk QC MP said: "Goodenough subjected the victim to a shocking and frightening ordeal. I referred his sentence because I considered it did not reflect the gravity of the offending and was unduly lenient. I am glad that the Court of Appeal agrees."

The 42-year-old, stalked his former partner as she went on a date, jealously sending the victim;s brother messages threatening suicide and demanding to know the location of the victim.

Using a tracking feature on her phone, Goodenough drove to the hotel the victim was staying at and verbally abused her, as well as assaulting her companion. He then proceeded to photograph her in a state of undress.

Mr Goodenough dragged the victim out of the hotel room to his car, suggesting he had a knife and that her son was in the vehicle. However, when she realised that her son was not in the car she tried to escape. A bystander intervened and the victim was able to get out of the car, while Goodenough escaped.

Prior to the sentence, he had been a long term contributor of Arsenal fan TV, particularly known for his passionate rants on the youtube channel under his nickname "DT"/ "Mr DT".

However, the channel has since distanced itself from the man after they learnt of his case.

Goodenough's initial 12-month sentence had been handed to him in November last year. Additionally, he was also given a restraining order for 10 years.
