This is a follow-up to my blog posting.. Here is a link to the New York Times article.

Below is an excerpt from the article..

The defendant, Lori Drew, 49, of O’Fallon, Mo., was convicted Wednesday in federal court in Los Angeles on misdemeanor charges of accessing computers without authorization. Her lawyer later said he hoped a judge would dismiss the charges against her.

Tina Meier, the mother of Megan Meier, the girl who committed suicide, said she would ask that Ms. Drew be held to the maximum penalty of three years in prison and a $300,000 fine.
