To summarize:
She was a substitute teacher.
She lost her teaching credentials instead of 40 years in prison.
It was a windows 98 computer.
She didn't have the sense to turn off the monitor, she tried to fight the battle of endless spyware pop ups.
The "expert" they had to explain the computers knew nothing.
- dgordon 18y ago"She lost her teaching credentials instead of 40 years in prison." It stuns me that 40 years was even a possibility. And it makes me wonder: have there been cases like this that we've never heard of, with similar vengeful prosecutors and similar ignorant, bewildered, defendants, who now cry themselves to sleep every night over what happened to their life? I wouldn't doubt it.
