nursegirl writes "Norwich, Conn seventh grade teacher, Julie Amero has
been convicted of four counts of risk of injury to a minor after her
classroom PC displayed pornographic pop-ups in class. While an expert
for the defendant said he had discovered spyware on her PC that had been
downloaded from a hairstyling site, the local police investigator
claimed that the spyware had been downloaded from actively visiting porn
sites. Amero testified that she had told four other teachers and the
assistant principal about the popups, but received no assistance. The
school's internet filtration software was not working because it's
license had expired. Amero faces up to forty years in prison."
