A woman has become the first person in Britain to be jailed for trolling herself - after bombarding her own Facebook page with fake abuse.
Michelle Chapman, 24, of Par, Cornwall, launched her bizarre online campaign after falling out with her father and her new stepmother, a court heard.
She created bogus Facebook accounts for the couple and other members of her family then sent herself hundreds of vile sexual taunts.
Chapman then reported the abuse to police claiming she’d been ‘trolled’ in a warped attempt to frame them.
Officers then arrested her stepmother and issued warnings to her father and other bewildered relatives.
Chapman’s year-long vendetta was only uncovered when forensic internet experts established the offending Facebook accounts had been set up at her home.
