A woman who sent intimate pictures of a man to his wife avoided jail today.
Andrea Rautenberg, 40, dispatched a total of five videos from properties in Lanark and Glasgow on June 23, 2019.
The man's genitals and buttocks were exposed on the images.

The woman also sent screenshots of Facebook conversations she had with him.
Rautenberg pleaded guilty at Glasgow Sheriff Court to disclosing pictures which had not been seen to the public at large or by him with his consent.
The charge says that the quantity of photographs and films showed the man or appeared to show him engaging in sexual acts not of an ordinary kind done in public.
It goes on to state that this was done with the intention to cause him, or she was reckless as to whether he would have been caused fear, alarm or distress.
Rautenberg, of Lanark, also admitted behaving in a threatening or abusive manner at the same time and place.
The court heard that the victim's wife received "a large number of messages" from Rautenberg.
These included texts exchanged on Facebook.
The man's wife did not respond to them before receiving five videos from Rautenberg - four of them being sexual.

Prosecutor Lauren Aitchison said: "This was sexual content between Rautenberg and the man.
"This was Rautenberg carrying out sexual acts out on the man."
The police were contacted and were able to link the Facebook profile of Rautenberg to the videos sent.
She was later arrested and made admissions to officers when quizzed.
Sheriff Vincent Lunny slapped a 163-day tag on Rautenberg keeping her indoors between 9pm and 7am.
She was also put under supervision for 12 months.
A five-year non-harassment order was granted restricting her contact with the man and his wife.
