[Nancy Willard <nwillard@CSRIU.ORG>]

The news today is that Julie has a new defense attorney. Thank goodness.

There is a defense fund for Julie at http://julieamer.blogspot.com/.

And just in case anyone is interested. No, I have not received any payment
for my work, nor would I accept one. There has clearly been an injustice
done and if you do not know me by now, you should know that I am pretty
passionate about injustice. Additionally, as a former teacher, former
attorney, and professional in the field of youth risk online and effective
Internet management in schools I am basically the only person I know who had
the background to put the pieces of the case together. So how could I not.

Unfortunately, the work I was going to be doing was revising my web sites.
And CBS news now has a link to my web site associated with a story on
cyberbullying. 

<sigh> too much work for the passionate.

Nancy
