Andrew Cohen, defending, said: "This is a young woman, a university graduate, very focused.
"She has worked throughout her life.
"She succeeded very well at university, and she has a good job now.
"This behaviour is completely out of character.
"This hasn’t happened before and is unlikely to happen again.
"This is clearly someone who is not a criminal and finds herself in this situation.
"This has been horrifying for her friends and family, and horrifying for her.
The judge, Mr Recorder John Ryder told Fennessy: ‘You were immediately cooperative.
"You are now usefully and successfully employed.
"I have no doubt that you have suffered tremendous anxiety as a result of this.
"You are not going to prison, either immediately or by way of a suspended sentence.
"I think you made a mistake and a very serious one. You have likely learned an immense amount from it."

She will have to complete 80 hours of unpaid work.
