Too bad for her she wasn't trying to rig a national election

She'd have been in the clear: "Florida student accused of rigging homecoming queen vote could face 16-year sentence".

Update  JeffS reports that the link doesn't work for him. It works for me, but in case it's a dud for anyone else, here's another news report on the story.

How is it a criminal case?
Jebus, suspend her, giver her detention, take away her phone, but possible jail time for a school 'election'?
And when do the FBI get involved?

Isn't that, like, the theme of every second high school comedy, dude?

We have become so serious all of a sudden. Well they told us the 21st century would be different.

Yeah, bizarre, Paco, the link works on a different device. Hmmmm!

The charges are focused on unauthorized network access by the daughter, and failure to follow security procedures on a government network for the mother. The school election was simply the path these actions came to light.

I doubt the daughter will see jail time, but she will probably get a felony conviction. The mother (and vice principal) ... ... we'll see. At the least, she SHOULD be fired.
