I'm well aware, not sure why you think I'm not. If she were guilty of hiring somebody to do the hacking but not actually doing it herself, then she might not know when the sensitive times were and would therefore be unable to fabricate evidence covering the sensitive times. That's what you pointed out, however it's not particularly relevant. The possibility that she was the technically competent hacker who was capable of fabricating EXIF data is a strong enough possibility for the university to meet their low standard of proof, and consequently determine she's guilty.
