They did appeal.
As I understand it an appeal is granted if they can show misconduct during the initial trial and not because they disagree with the verdict. Could me wrong, not a lawyer.
- r8533292 2y agoyou're correct, i missed that part, because i would've looked up the appeal decision otherwise, https://casetext.com/case/commonwealth-v-spone https://casetext.com/case/commonwealth-v-spone and it provides all the necessary details that support my guess in the op: spone was an unhinged busybody anonymously harrassing parents, the greater abhorent witch hunt took this minor community business into a national spotlight, but now the overal complexity of the situation allows spone to pretend to be a victim. if you feel particularly involved, i recommend reading the decision in full, it addresses all the concerns i have so far encountered in comments, question of free speech, potential lack of evidence, etc.

A) "Unhinged busybody"? [Citation needed] (Yeah, sure, not super-sympathetic. But a far cry from your vicious characterization.) B) The national spotlight is a lot bigger than minor community business, and it that much bigger issue she definitely was a victim. No pretending needed.
