KEY WEST, Fla. (WPTV) -- A 29-year-old Florida Keys woman was arrested after she sent threatening text messages to another woman and posted her address on a dating website, along with an open invitation for men seeking sex, Monroe County Sheriff's deputies said.
Vanessa Huckaba was arrested Saturday on charges of cyberstalking and sending harassing phone calls or texts.
The 36-year-old Key West woman told Monroe County Sheriff's Office deputies that she started receiving text messages from Huckaba when she began dating Huckaba's ex-boyfriend.
Even though the woman got a restraining order against Huckaba, the harassment didn't stop, deputies said.
Instead, deputies said, Huckaba set up a fake profile on a dating website commonly used for brief sexual encounters in which she posted the woman's home address, cellphone number and an open invitation for men seeking sex. The posting included the statement, "fresh meth tonight."
Soon after, strangers started showing up at the woman's home, and some even sent her nude photographs of themselves, deputies said. Huckaba was eventually booked into jail after a warrant was issued for her arrest.
