    Yes, your reply is very snarky Mr. Deputy Dog. You seem incensed that she got off so easily. And of course she "still" could lose her teaching license. You seem to take a perverse pleasure in reminding me of this, as if you have to have the last word.

    The advice on this board is helpful, but it clearly has an air of judgement and disdain with posts like yours.

    After all, traffic tickets in most states are treated as criminal matters
    Infractions are only quasi-criminal. A conviction on a traffic ticket is not the same as a conviction on a misdemeanor.

    A conviction on a shoplifting charge would be something like a conviction on a DUI

    On one hand you are probably correct; on the other hand, if I were her, I wouldn't exactly put it out of my head and not worry about it. A family acquaintance who is a teacher actually just lost their job over an arrest-without-conviction when a parent that hated them dredged it up and made an issue over it.

    I suppose it's all about what position you actually find yourself in. We can say "odds are probably against it." If I were the one in the situation and depended on the job, I'd probably be losing some sleep over it.
    LOL. Respectfully. I think I know that case.

    In many contexts, a shoplifting charge can be worse because theft is an offense that reflects on your honesty.

    Respectfully, a DUI is an offense that reflects on your stupidity and lack of care for human life

    Had to come back a month and a half later for that? Who has to have the last word?

    And, no, you are wrong that I'm "incensed." I really don't give a ****. I tell our prosecutors to let S/L's plead to disorderly conduct for all I care. The "perverse pleasure" that you detect is nothing of the sort; rather, what you are detecting is a disgust with our society in general because, increasingly, there is no responsibility for criminal actions. "No jail for non-violent crimes" and "end the classroom to prison pipeline" are the mantras of the day, all the while ignoring that if one simply makes good choices and chooses to not engage in criminal behavior, one "beats the system" every time. And, with your OP, where you come in is arguing that someone made a "mistake" (it was nothing of the sort, it was a willful criminal act) and shouldn't suffer consequences, right in line with the rest of society today.

    Wait until the school board finds out and terminates her. As you noted " she was stupid, greedy and selfish". These are not the qualities a good teacher possesses.
