A racist steel fixer who pulled out his penis in a police station and used the n-word to a female civil police worker was jailed for six months today.
David Beattie, 41, called the custody worker a "n***** and a black b******," Falkirk Sheriff Court was told.
Prosecutor Katie Cunningham said the incident happened on August 16th, 2019, after Beattie had been taken to the station in relation to another matter.
He shouted and swore at the worker, Jaqueline Murray, and made the racist remarks.
Miss Cunningham said: "He then began to pulled down his trousers, cupped his penis in his right hand and pulled it upwards shouting 'fucking blow me, fucking blow me, poof'.
"This happened in quick succession and he was arrested and charged."
The court heard that two years earlier, also after being arrested in relation to another matter, Beattie had clashed with police taking him in.
Miss Cunningham said: "On route to Falkirk Police Station he shouted and swore and threatened to murder one of the officers and anyone who gave a statement against him.
"He continually threatened head-butt both the officers who were conveying him to the police station."
Beattie, of Laurieston, Falkirk, was appearing by video link for sentence after a community payback order made against him in respect of the offences was breached.
He admitted using threatening and abusive behaviour and uttering racist remarks.
Solicitor-advocate Stephen Biggam, defending, described Beattie as "a hard working labourer"
He added: "But when he's not working he has a habit of lapsing into a proper alcohol problem and being a nuisance to people.
"He doesn't care about what he says to people when he's drunk, but he's horrified when he's sober.
"He is well aware the court will not be impressed."
Sheriff Derek Livingston ordered the six-month sentence to be served consecutive to a jail sentence for a different matter which Beattie is currently serving -- and from which he would otherwise have been released in three weeks' time.
