Sanne S., the 34-year-old woman from Putten who is suspected of staging her own stalking, told the court in Utrecht on Friday that her actions were a “cry for help.” The claim resulted in a falsely-accused man being sentenced to a one-year jail sentence. The Public Prosecution Service recommended a jail sentence of 18 months against the woman, and apologized to her victim. “We failed,” the prosecutor said.
