A Geneva woman has been found guilty of stalking two men for several years and has been sentenced to a year in prison and has been ordered to attend psychiatric counselling.

She was also sentenced to an additional four years in jail, suspended. 

She harassed the men with emails, fake social media accounts and postcards.

The court heard she sent around 900 emails from 50 different accounts and left posts on the victims' social media timelines - some positive and others denigrating. 

The woman’s lawyer says she plans to appeal.
