Alba Gonzalez Camacho, 21, posted messages requesting for terrorist organizations to return to Spain and kill politicians. After these tweets were seen, it did not take much time for her to get arrested and "convicted for inciting terrorism using a social media network." According to Raphael Minder:
It was the first verdict of its kind involving Twitter posts in Spain, and the case has touched on issues of where precisely the cultural, political and legal red lines lie in a country that not long ago lived under both the grip of Fascist dictatorship and the threat of leftist terrorism.
This case has brought attention to social media and what should be limited in what people say on the internet. Camacho, claims she is "unaffiliated with any political organization. " At the same time she was tweeting for the terror organization known as the Grapo to kill conservative prime minister, Mariano Rajoy. According to Minder she wrote,
I promise to tattoo myself with the face of the person who shoots Rajoy in the neck.
Although, Grapo no longer is a current threat to Spain, what Camacho did is being seen an act of terrorism and she was sentenced to one year in prison. Most likely she will avoid jail time with a plea bargain because this is her first offense. Camacho explains she had no intention of threatening Spanish society that her intention was to,
fight a system in which a minority lives on the back of the death, misery and exploitation of a majority in a country where the euro crisis has sown widespread economic despair.
Camacho's attorney feels that she was just practicing freedom of expression, but the Spanish Courts believe she went to far and her freedom of expression became threatening
