holy cow, batman! (none / 0) (#12)

this is a complete travesty. and yes, they threw her to the baying parental wolves. i especially liked the claim by the school district's IT guy, that their malware protection had only failed six times, in ten years. too f*ing funny for words. except, it isn't. and someone actually takes this bozo seriously?

i can only assume this woman had the single most inept defense attorney in new england. geez, i'm not even an attorney, and i could have blown the prosecution out of the water.

i hope this gets (quickly) overturned on appeal.

oh, btw, apple didn't used to get hit as badly, with viruses & popups because, well, so few people used them, why waste the time for the 10 or 12 apple users on the net? lol

She turned down probation before trial (none / 0) (#13)

No one turns down probation on a possible 30 year sentence unless it's on principle -- the principle that they are innocent. I agree, go read Majikthese -- she's got some great insights, including the fact that Anero was computer illiterate for the most part.

One time in the early '90's I had to go to Miami to do a case and my laptop had died.  I borrowed one from one of the TLkid's friends. They were 12.  When I got to the fancy hotel (the brand new Delano on South Beach) I couldnt get the internet connection to work so i called the front desk for help.  He fixed it and after he left and I was browsing around on the computer and found a ton of soft porn.  I was so embarassed, what if it had popped up in court or in front of the hotel-fix-it guy.  Since then, I've never traveled with another person's computer.  

There are just way too many explanations for this that don't point to Anero's guilt.

It's often why we tell clients who believe they are innocent, take the probation  --  unless you were in Ohio when they said it happened, some jury might be crazy enough to convict you.  Trial by jury is always a crap shoot.
