As of yesterday, she's been granted a new trial that will allow her expert witness to testify (since his testimony will be available to prosecution before trial), although some are saying that it will not go to court and all charges will be dropped against her. Apparently the independent lab that was hired to examine the hard drive from the machine found a spybot that had been loaded back around Halloween when the teacher she was subbing for downloaded a Halloween screen saver.

There are also calls from the people involved (on the defense side) for the resignation of the prosecuting attorney.
