Peter Wiseman (Scottish Borders)
A Peter Wiseman, who was 20 years old in 2017 and resided in Howegate, Hawick, faced criminal charges at Selkirk Sheriff Court. On June 10, 2017, he was accused of behaving in a threatening or abusive manner at Borders General Hospital in Melrose. This included shouting, swearing, making abusive, threatening, and offensive comments, calling a police officer a terrorist, and claiming involvement in the Manchester Arena bombing. He also denied a second charge of assaulting a female employee at the hospital by spitting in her face. A trial date for these charges was set for October 12, 2017.
Later, in October 2025, a Peter Wiseman, then 28 years old and residing in Selkirk, was convicted of 16 offenses in the Selkirk area and sentenced to over two years in jail. The offenses included eight counts of culpable and reckless conduct (such as throwing stones at passing cars in Ettrick Terrace and Dunsdale Road), three vandalism offenses, two charges of sending offensive messages, two breaches of an Anti-Social Behaviour Order, and one charge of malicious mischief. His sentences totaled 25 months and were back-dated to July 2025, when he was first remanded in custody. Given the age progression and geographical location, it is highly probable that this is the same individual.
