Hairdresser broke flyscreen and climbed into ex's bed
A hairdresser cut open the flyscreen of her ex-boyfriend's bedroom window and crawled into bed with him, before causing $1200 of damage to his car in a separate argument weeks later.
Paris Coudounellis looked glamorous in a red Gucci belt and dress pants as she faced Waverley Local Court in Sydney on Wednesday.
The 20-year-old pleaded guilty to three counts of damaging property and one count of common assault.
She has also pleaded guilty to breaching an apprehended violence order that protected her ex-boyfriend of two years, Luke Paterson, the court was told on Wednesday.
Court documents revealed Mr Paterson heard a scratching noise at his bedroom window one night in June last year however could not find out where it was coming from.
That night, Coudounellis cut open two flyscreens and broke into the home before climbing into bed with Mr Paterson.
He wasn't aware of the break-in until the following morning when his mother walked in and found Coudounellis in her son's bed.
Later in June, Mr Paterson was driving his mother's Mercedes to work in Coogee in Sydney's east when he parked his car outside the surf life saving club.
Coudounellis got into the car and began crying and accusing Mr Paterson of seeing another girl.
She then began kicking the car and damaging the airconditioning vents among other controls inside the car.
The repairs to the Mercedes cost $1200.
A couple of weeks later in August, the pair were both at Anytime Fitness in Kensington where they began arguing before Mr Paterson left to go home.
He went home and closed the door on Coudounellis, who then pulled the flyscreen off his bedroom window and said: 'I'm not leaving until you come outside to talk to me.'
The argument continued for an hour.
The hairdresser was arrested and charged in late August.
In Waverley court on Wednesday, her matter was adjourned for six weeks in order for a sentencing assessment report to be completed.
She will return to court in June for sentencing.

NT police launch death in custody probe after man dies at Royal Darwin Hospital
The Northern Territroy Police Force (NTPF) says it is investigating a death in custody after a man died at Royal Darwin Hospital (RDH) on Saturday. In a statement, an NTPF spokesperson said the 68-year-old man had been in RDH's intensive care unit since May 30. The spokesperson said before being hospitalised, the man was arrested by Australian Federal Police (AFP) officers following reports he was unable to board a flight due to intoxication. The AFP is the lead law enforcement agency at Darwin International Airport. "The male was taken into protective custody by AFP officers and was initially conveyed to the Palmerston watch house," the NT police spokesperson said. "Before being admitted [into the watch house] and whilst still in AFP custody, the custody sergeant and nurse assessed the male where it was deemed necessary to convey the man to RDH for further assessment." The NTPF spokesperson said upon arrival at RDH, "AFP members noticed the man had lost consciousness". "Medical staff were alerted, who immediately commenced CPR," they said. "Resuscitation efforts were successful, and he was transferred to the intensive care unit in a stable condition for ongoing treatment for what was a suspected medical event." The man subsequently died at the intensive care unit on Saturday. The NTPF spokesperson said the cause of his death remained "undetermined pending a post-mortem". "The incident is being investigated as a death in custody, as the man was in the custody of the AFP at the time of him first losing consciousness," they said. "The NTPF is now investigating on behalf of the coroner."

Amazon Australia removes machetes after landmark Victoria ban
Amazon has removed the sale of all machetes from its online Australian marketplace after a landmark ban in Victoria. The Victorian government announced a statewide ban on the sale of machetes following a violent brawl at a Northland shopping centre. The Australian-first ban will come into effect from September 1, and comes amid mounting calls for the Labor government to crackdown on youth crime. Despite the ban, Amazon Australia was reportedly still selling the deadly weapon earlier this month; in a statement this week, the retailer said that had come to and end. A spokesperson for the retail giant confirmed machetes were no longer for sale across all of Amazon Australia, not just in Victoria, following the state government's decision. Google searches for machetes on Amazon continued to retrieve results on Sunday, but the link took buyers to a web page stating the address was 'not functioning'. An interim total ban on the sale of machetes was introduced on May 28, with failure to comply with the ban when it comes in affect being a criminal offence. The interim order means those who may have a legitimate and legal reason to have a machete, namely farmers, will be locked out of any purchases. After September 1, retailers will be able to apply for an exemption to sell machetes for legitimate use, and will be listed on a police register. A three-month amnesty will also come into affect from September 1, allowing anyone already possessing a machete to hand them in. The ban is the first of its kind in Australia, and comes after the brawl at Northland shopping centre, which sparked a lockdown. Four males have since been charged over the alleged rival gang fight. They remain before the courts.
