Lesbian sex and violence threats against US author

Fri 19 Jul 2013 In: New Zealand Daily News

Melissa Anelli A New Zealand woman has been accused of sexual and violence cyber-threats against a female American author who has written a book on the Harry Potter books and film series and who runs an associated website. Writer and Harry Potter aficionado Melissa Agnelli has filed a complaint aginst the New Zealand woman and it is reported that the American FBI has issued a warrant for her arrest, even though she lives in New Zealand. The abuse, which allegedly includes threats to flay Anelli alive, to slit her throat and "you will give yourself to me in bed one day" is said to have started in 2008 when the accused woman was booted off Anelli's Harry Potter fan site for abusive comments. For legal reasons GayNZ.com Daily News is constrained from naming the woman, who is said to have also threatened the Anelli's parents, or providing further details about her.
