A Paris court has found 10 people guilty of cyberbullying France’s first lady, Brigitte Macron by spreading false online claims about her gender and sexuality, including allegations she was born a man. On Monday, the court convicted all defendants to sentences ranging from cyberbullying awareness training to eight-month suspended prison sentences. The defendants, aged 41 to 65, posted malicious comments linking Macron's age gap with her husband to pedophilia. Brigitte Macron did not attend the trial but said she launched legal proceedings to set an example against harassment. Her daughter testified about the impact on their family.
