Gone are the days of goons showing up at your door or horse heads in your bed. This is the digital age, baby! Web 2.0! So, it should come as no surprise that jury tampering has also moved into the digital age.
Meet Chandra Bozelko, who didn’t just ask a friend to go talk to a jury member. She downloaded software that would spoof her phone number on caller id and disguised her voice using electronic means. Clever girl, that.
Unfortunately, as with viruses and anti-virus software, if there’s something on the internet that helps you do something wrong, there’s someone somewhere that’s come up with a way to track it.
And so Ms. Bozelko was caught and is now charged with tampering with a jury. The jury that she tried to convince that she was innocent? It convicted her.
I guess if you have no faith in the criminal justice system, you do what you have to do…

I particularly like that part of the story about her father, former lawyer under indictment for stealing from his clients. More proof that the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.
Smart family, but not smart enough.
