A statement has been released by Ashley Judd regarding the police report she filed against her half-sister, country music star Wynonna Judd, in Tennessee last month, ABC News reported.

Ashley, 45, accused her sister of trying to spy on her after a tracking device was found in her car. According to ABC News, Ashley tweeted a link to the statement on her website and also composed the statement through nine separate tweets on Twitter.

"The issue at hand is the illegal violation of my privacy in that a tracking device was secretly and unlawfully placed on my vehicle," she wrote. "For my safety and that of everyone around me, I naturally filed a police report, as any citizen would and should.

"The media is unfortunately aggressively pursuing and publishing details, some of which should be private and confidential, such as my cell phone number, in their attempt to create salacious and divisive 'news'" she wrote. "Our police station and town hall are being barraged with phone calls and emails, diverting them from their priorities in law enforcement and civic management, and taxpayer dollars are being wasted as well."

Ashley continued to slam the media for covering the story in the way they have. She said an officer had already been punished for working with the media, according to ABC News.

"A very fine career detective has been suspended for a moment of poor judgment for succumbing to media invasiveness [sic]," she said. "It is my, and everyone's, responsibility to take routine action when any law is broken.

"I hope the law enforcement officials can continue to do their jobs in spite of media speculation, pressure and poor conduct. Thank you," she wrote. 

Earlier this week, reports surfaced that a mechanic had found a wireless GPS in a car owned by Ashley.

Following that, a police report stated she told one detective she "believed Wynonna Judd placed the device on the vehicle," and told another officer that she "believed Wynonna had placed or had someone else place the device on her vehicle."
