Not with certainty, no, but in this case, I think we can safely assume she wasn’t spoofing her IP address or anything like that. So, if you have the correct IP address, you could trace it to the provider, and the area in which that provider uses that address range, very easily. Beyond that, you would need some specific info that only the ISP has, which isn’t normally publicly available.

You do nto have to “spoof” any IP address.

The publicly visible IP address of the domain means absolutely nothing other than who is hosting the domain.

You can however, as was pointed out up thread, locate to specific countries (usually).

You cannot get down to street address level / building level. (Except under certain condiitons)

Try it on your own IP
