Miguel Guhlin, along with many others, wants to help reach the goal of 1,000 signatures in support of Julie Amero, the substitute teacher whose life was ruined back in 2004 in a Norwich, Connecticut middle school. She still faces the possibility of 40 years in prison for not doing enough to protect the kids in her class from a continuous stream of porn-related pop-ups on a poorly protected computer in the classroom. Although the first trial was overturned due to shoddy ... (well, shoddy everything), the State Attorneys office still hasn't dropped the charges scheduled a new trial, leaving her in a state of limbo. "Signing this petition, and indicating where you are from, will let the prosecutor folks in Connecticut realize just how much this case has not lost the interest of folks around the country." and beyond - BD
