Teacher's controversial porn conviction

This really seems to have been a case of guilty until proven innocent, except that the system (prosecutor, jury, etc.) never wanted to give proving this person's innocence a chance. Don't miss this Hartford Courant column about how a Connecticut substitute teacher who doesn’t know much about computers and was taught by the school system never to unplug or turn computers off was assigned to a classroom with a computer whose anti-virus and anti-spyware protection had expired on which porn pop-ups kept appearing on screen apparently after students in her classroom inadvertently click to a porn site, and she’s tried and convicted for exposing children to adult content. She now faces possible sentencing of up to 40 years in prison (sentencing hasn't occurred yet). Courant columnist Rick Green writes, "A city is being pilloried in news reports across the globe. Amero - an incompetent teacher at worst - is a convicted porn felon. Could we all step back and look for some truth?" Here's the Associate Press's coverage, picked up globally.
