    Can this count as making a agreement under duress? Or inadequate council? Perhaps she will let her health improve some and file an appeal.

    That is horrible. I hope those that prosecuted her, die and go to hell.


    Nothing could have popped up on that computer that would have been worth 40 YEARS IN PRISON!!!!


    1. Porn is not illegal.
    2. If I had sex with a 14 year old I would not serve 40 years in prison.

    @crazyeoin: That's why it is so important to vote out old judges and politicians and replace them with someone who better understands "today's" world. We have people from the old era trying to lead us into the new one.

    @snoop-blog: AFAIK you can't vote a judge out, you have to wait until they retire/die, or impeach them (easier said than done as we can't even impeach Bush even with all the crimes his administration has committed).

    Junior high was never this exciting when I attended.


    The fact that the teacher was a substitute should tell anyone she is likely not the person who is responsible for the spyware.

    Pretty tough to bring a civil suit once you've pled guilty to criminal charges.


    She essentially gave up all those rights as well as her ability to teach, and will live the rest of her life with a criminal record along with all of the civil liabilities that come with that record, because after 4 years, health problems, massive time commitment, and personal expense it just wasn't worth it anymore.


    Happens. All. The. Time.

    Ah, idioti! Do they expect Google to instantaneously erase objectionable content within seconds, amongst the thousands and thousands that they'd go through with Youtube alone?

    Good thinking threatening to say bad things about a computer company if she didn't get 5 mill.


    Since no computer company has ever survived the online rants of a disgruntled customer.


    Just think about it. If she made good on her threat, ASUS would crash overnight, and Macs and PCs would continue their uncomplained-about reign forever.

    The title's a bit misleading guys... More accurately, it should read more like "Asus gets woman locked up for 10 months over attempted extortion". That was a little tabloid-ish.
