Two guilty over abusive tweets to Caroline Criado-Perez
Two people have pleaded guilty to sending "menacing" tweets to feminist campaigner Caroline Criado-Perez.
Isabella Sorley, 23, of Newcastle, and John Nimmo, 25, of South Shields, admitted at Westminster Magistrates' Court sending the messages over a public communications network.
They will be sentenced on 24 January.
Ms Criado-Perez, of Rutland, received abuse after her campaign for a woman to appear on a bank note resulted in Jane Austen being selected for the £10 note.
The 29-year-old said the case was a "small drop in the ocean" compared to the abuse she and other women received online.

One of the convicted is a woman. I guess that wrecks a few stereotypes.

Ratz moderators should be put in charge of all the tweets! We'd soon sort 'em out!
