“We remind all concerned that criminal proceedings against this defendant are active and that she has the right to a fair trial,” said McHaffie.

“It is vital that there should be no reporting, commentary or sharing of information online which could in any way prejudice these proceedings,” he added. 

Bartley is scheduled to appear in Birmingham Magistrates’ Court on May 14.

If convicted, she could face between one and 18 years in prison.
