FIFE WOMAN CAUGHT IN FACEBOOK INDECENCY AND ABUSE CASE
A 33-year-old woman from Fife named Gillian Smith, of Leighton Street in High Valleyfield, appeared at Dunfermline Sheriff Court for posting an explicit picture of a woman wearing a bra on Facebook using someone else's account without permission.
She also posted a series of derogatory and abusive messages about the woman, which were visible to her friends.
The messages were screenshotted by a third party who informed the woman.
The woman was distressed by the inappropriate nature of the posts and contacted police.
Gillian Smith pleaded guilty to behaving in a threatening and abusive manner on November 14, 2020.
The sheriff, Mungo Bovey, deferred sentencing for six months to allow Smith to show good behavior, with the warning that she would be admonished if she complied.
