A woman is facing possible jail time for tagging her former sister-in-law on Facebook in a comment that referred to the woman as being “stupid.”
As with all social media, one should be careful what you say or do on Facebook. Once that post is made, it is out there in the ether and could cause potential legal problems for the poster.
We all know it happens. People get divorced and sometimes they fight with their former partners or get upset with their previous in laws. In the case of Maria Gonzalez, however, she may have taken things a little too far.
According to a report in the Express Tribune, after a New York judge ruled that even tagging someone on Facebook is electronic communication, Gonzalez is in a whole heap of trouble. Reportedly Gonzalez had been warned before to keep a low profile and not communicate with her sister-in-law from her previous marriage, Maribel Calderon.
