An American actor who harassed an Irish woman over a three-year period has been sentenced to two years in prison, with the final year suspended.
Stephen Spenneberg (55) of Oakshire Drive, Los Angeles, California, was sent forward on a signed plea from the District Court for harassing a woman on dates between May 10, 2020 and January 3, 2023.
Passing sentence at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court, Judge Orla Crowe described Spenneberg’s harassment as “unwanted, unwarranted, persistent and repeated” and noted that it had had a “profound impact” on the woman.
