GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — A western Michigan woman is accused of creating a Facebook account to stalk herself.

Cheryl Nelson, a 52-year-old from the Grand Rapids area, complained to sheriff’s deputies that she was the victim of stalking, harassment and other crimes. But authorities learned that she set up a Facebook account with her ex-boyfriend’s information and made it appear that his new girlfriend was using it to harass her.

Detective Jason Russo of the sheriff’s department says Nelson couldn’t let go of her relationship with her former boyfriend.
