A former professor in Australia was convicted on Thursday of sending herself threatening letters after claiming to be the victim of threats.

The Sydney Morning Herald reported that Dianne Jolley, 51, a former professor at the University of Technology Sydney (UTS) was found guilty on “10 counts of conveying information she knew to be false or misleading to make a person fear for the safety of another” and one count “of causing financial disadvantage by deception.” A jury of 11 came to the decision after three days of deliberation.
