It seems Julie Amero, the substitute teacher who was convicted for allowing children to see porn popups on the school computer, was apparently railroaded. The school is letting her take the fall for their failure to properly secure the computer and our justice system has failed again. Here is a commentary by Herbert Horner who did the forensic examination of the computer assigned to Julie Amero:
The Strange Case of Ms. Julie Amero
This was one of the most frustrating experiences of my career, knowing full well that the person is innocent and not being allowed to provide logical proof.
If there is an appeal and the defense is allowed to show the entire results of the forensic examination in front of experienced computer people, including a computer literate judge and prosecutor, Julie Amero will walk out the court room as a free person.
Let this experience stand as a warning to all that use computers in an environment where minors are present. The aforementioned situation can happen to anyone without fail and without notice if there is not adequate firewall, antispyware, antiadware and antivirus protection. That was not provided by the school administration where Julie Amero taught.
It can happen to you.
Here is an article about the situation - good information:
