Angry judge throws the book at cheating teachers. 20 years for cheating on tests to improve performance bonuses. 7 of the 20 have to be spent in prison. Ouch.

  • Cheating has become endemic.what once was called a character flaw has becomecommon plce. Honor students cheat on tests and share homework, as wellas plagerizing papers. Applicants . Lie on . Resumes, cook books to make their productivity higher and turn on other employees like Nazi informers. Our "pu b lic servants" cheat, lie, take bribes,all to line their own pockets. In a worldof relative morality, nothing is ever wrong. Until you get caught. Then its the fault of society, class, the . Parents, teachers, anyone but the individual.

    • Congratulations to the progressive left. They have finally gotten to the point where people don't comprehend personal responsibility, because they are taught this mindset in school, from childhood on.
      I am sick and tired of everyone blaming "society", their upbringing, anything but themselves, for their bad behavior. It's even gotten to become a defense in court! Look at that scumbag Aaron Hernandez!

  • Suck part is the kids are the ones who got hurt the most, but since when has Marxists ever cared about children, besides being cannon fodder.

  • So they are going to jail, where ironically they will be with the students they failed the most.

    I wonder how they will fare?

    Cue Van Halen's "Hot for Teacher"!!

    • "So they are going to jail, where ironically they will be with the students they failed the most."

      IHTM line of the month.

  • So cheating teachers get 7-20, yet 2 armed thugs breaking into an occupied home and scaring a 3 year old, not so much.

  • "There were thousands of children that were harmed in this thing," Judge Jerry Baxter said during sentencing, according to Reuters. Later, he added, "It’s like the sickest thing that’s ever happened to this town."

    Wait till the judge gets a hold of more liberals who go on trial for various crimes....He might just be amazed as just how deep demotard criminal activity goes.

    • Tip of the iceberg is right. Most of the big muckety mucks pled to lesser charges to avoid going to trial.

      • The idiot teachers believed their union, that they would get off scot free.

        BWAHAHAHA!!!!

        Poor judge is going to be getting investigated by the injustice dept for being racist towards the teachers.

      • This is what Big Government looks like. Never would have happened without a Department of Education/Common Core/constant federal overreach.
