- jkaplowitz 8y agoThanks! Do you have a link to how her case turned out? That article stops after her not guilty plea and her release on bond.

- Terretta 8y agoIn her words on the record, "... the deal made with the D.A. was to perform 50 hours of community service, to not be arrested in Massachusetts, for an entire year, and that I had to issue a public apology to Boston." https://boingboing.net/2008/09/22/star-simpson-one-yea.html https://boingboing.net/2008/09/22/star-simpson-one-yea.html
- jkaplowitz 8y agoThanks. It's still more than the "be careful of uninformed non-scientist public perception" warning that she should have gotten, but it's probably the least the DA could politically speaking get away with and still save face. Society's reactions to this kind of thing are messed up in a complicated way. Good interview there.
