Woman Charged Over Facebook Posting

A freelance journalist who wrote stories for the Greenwich Time has been arrested for allegedly publishing information about a 17-year-old girl on the social networking site Facebook.

Teri A. Buhl, 38, of Locust Avenue, was charged last Thursday with second-degree harassment, second-degree breach of peace and interfering with an officer. Buhl turned herself in to police on a warrant.

Police said the investigation began in June when they received a complaint from a 17-year-old girl who reported that personal information about her was posted on Facebook. The information, police said, stated that the girl attended a party where alcohol was being consumed and also included inappropriate sexual comments. The girl, police said, was a New Canaan High School student.

Police obtained court orders to identify who was responsible for the posting and identified Buhl.

Buhl was released on $5,000 bond and is scheduled to appear Nov. 9 at Norwalk Superior Court.
