"An Akron woman was sentenced to 10 days in the Summit County Jail, three years of probation following her release and 80 hours of community service for being convicted of falsifying residency records so that her two children could attend Copley-Fairlawn schools. Common Pleas Judge Patricia A. Cosgrove, who handed down the sentence Tuesday afternoon in a packed courtroom with Cleveland's major television networks recording the proceedings, ordered Kelley Williams-Bolar, 40, to begin serving the sentence immediately. Williams-Bolar, who was standing before the bench with her attorney, Kerry M. O'Brien, nearly collapsed into the arms of sheriff's deputies as she was led away, sobbing loudly, to begin serving her jail term. She was convicted of two counts of tampering with records by a jury late Saturday following seven hours of deliberations. While her two girls were registered as living at an address with her father on Black Pond Drive in Copley Township within the school district, prosecutors said the children actually were living in Akron with their mother on Hartford Avenue in subsidized housing provided by the Akron Metropolitan Housing Authority." - Steven Perez from Bookmarklet

So she is being penalized for trying to give her daughters a better education? - Shevonne

Yep. Judging from the judge's remarks, she's being made an example. - Steven Perez

That makes me so angry. - Shevonne

Very sad and the root cause goes without legal punishment:( - Roney Smith
