A woman who rode naked on a motorbike through a town centre, had sex with a man in the High Street and punched a blind man in the chest, has been jailed.

Natasha Claus was today described as a 'mess' by a judge who also banned from an entire town when she comes out of prison.

Police had earlier today appealed for anyone who saw the blonde on the streets to ring them immediately.

The 36-year-old then arrived in Crown Court four hours late and appeared before Judge Peter Ross who jailed her immediately.

He also imposed a criminal behaviour order - which means she has been barred from the entire town of Woking, Surrey.

Claus admitted charges including outraging public decency after being caught by a High Street shopper in the middle of a sexual act with a man which Judge Ross said was "no doubt for money."

The judge also made reference to a further indecent incident, saying: "I had the impression there was some reference to her riding around on a motorbike with no clothes on, but that has nothing to do with the charges today."

He sent repeat offender Claus to jail for 13 months for a string of offences including breaching a previous suspended jail term.

Dressed in a black and white striped jumper and with her blonde hair tied back, Claus appeared at Guildford Crown Court to be sentenced last week.

Prosecutor John Upton said: "The police believe that Ms Claus has a habit of befriending vulnerable men and taking advantage of them.

"Nigel Coates was one of these. The council later threatened to evict him from his one bedroomed flat because of her anti-social behaviour.

"They had arguments which escalated over various phone calls. She then approached him in the kitchen with either a fist or the palm of her hand. He couldn't tell as he is registered blind.

"She started shouting at him and threatened to set her brothers and mother on him."

The court also heard how she also assaulted two police officers as they tried to arrest her.

Ms Claus was reported to have kicked one officer in the leg and racially harassed another.

Mr Upton said: The officers attempted to take her to a police car whilst they waited for a van.

"At this stage she tried to walk away. PC Hopper took hold of her left arm and PC Haslan her right. She pushed her arms away and resisted.

"She kicked PC Hopper in the leg, and yelled 'you P**i c**t at least twice," said the prosecutor.

Judge Moss also heard how a woman who was walking with her children spotted Claus engaging in sexual behaviour in the middle of the street.

Mr Upton said that on July 29 she was reported in Goldsworth Road, Woking, Surrey, to be seen with the man performing a sex act on her.

He continued: "A woman was there with her children and she remonstrated with Ms Claus who then stood up and threatened to punch her.

"When Ms Claus was searched at the scene by the police she had done her jeans up but her knickers were found in her handbag."

Claus' defence barrister. Timothy Leete, told the court how she had become addicted to inhaling butane gas and was struggling to come to terms with her mother's suicide.

Sentencing her, Judge Moss described Claus as "a mess" and said "your life is a mess."

He added: "You were in a relationship with a blind man, it's a fear that you were abusing your position. You came into an argument and you struck him in the chest causing him to fall back.

"Any assault on a vulnerable person is very serious indeed, as is any attack on the police officers who we have a moral obligation to protect.

"The outraging public decency charge is as a result of you receiving a sex act in public - no doubt for money.

"You were seen by a lady who had her children with her and when she was outraged, you abused her.

"In addition, you were supposed to be here for sentencing this morning and you were late by several hours.

"You are a mess. Your life is a mess. I spoke to your son earlier and it is a testament to something in your son's life that he's never been to court and finds this whole situation awful.

"I have made a criminal behaviour order against you, restricting your movements and behaviour.

"I have no alternative but to remand you in custody. The sentence I impose on you is as follows: assault on the blind individual, three months in jail; assault by kicking the PC, two months; the racially aggravated abusive behaviour on the other officer, two months; for outraging public decency, one month and further month for abusing the lady in the street.

"I am also activating a period of four months in relation to beaching your suspended jail sentence, as well as one day for breaching bail. "

The punishment means that Claus has been banned from entering parts of Woking due to her aggressive and anti-social behaviour in and around the town centre.

A spokesman for Surrey Police said today: "Natasha Claus has been problematic in and around Woking for sometime and when under the influence, becomes very aggressive towards members of the public.

"She is also known to target and take advantage financially of vulnerable men living in accommodation in Sheerwater, near Woking. The ban is until further notice."

Force anti-social behaviour manager Jo Grimshaw said: "This ban is in place to prevent Natasha from causing further distress to members of the public in and around the Woking area.

"It will also protect the vulnerable men whose tenancy was under threat because of her volatile behaviour.

"Not only is Natasha banned from entering Woking town centre but she is also banned from Dartmouth and Devonshire Avenue in Sheerwater.

"If you see Natasha breaching the conditions of her order please call us."
