“#Florida assistant principal arrested for rigging homecoming queen<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n

An assistant principal in Florida and her 17-year-old daughter were arrested Monday for allegedly hacking into school computers to rig a homecoming queen election, authorities said.<\/p>\n

Laura Rose Carroll, 50,\u00a0is accused of using her privileged access to the Escambia County School District\u2019s\u00a0internal system to cast sham votes for her daughter, according to<\/a> the Florida Department of Law Enforcement.<\/p>\n

The teen, who was named Tate High School\u2019s 2020 homecoming queen last fall, also allegedly took part in the fraud.<\/p>\n

Agents began looking into the matter in October, when hundreds of votes for the school\u2019s homecoming court\u00a0were flagged as fraudulent, with 117 of them originating from the same IP address.<\/p>\n

Investigators found that Carroll, an assistant principal at Bellview Elementary School, and her daughter had allegedly accessed the FOCUS accounts of several students. FOCUS is the school district\u2019s student information system.<\/p>\n

Evidence showed that a total of 246 votes had been cast from accounts accessed by computers inside the mom and daughter\u2019s Pensacola\u00a0home or from Carroll\u2019s cellphone, the FDLE said.<\/p>\n

Multiple students also told investigators that Carroll\u2019s daughter had boasted about using her mother\u2019s FOCUS account to cast votes.<\/p>\n

The mom and daughter were each hit with several charges including unlawful use of a two-way communications device and criminal use of personally identifiable information.<\/p>\n

District Superintendent Tim Smith told the Pensacola News Journal<\/a> that Carroll has been suspended\u00a0from her job but declined to comment further. Her daughter was expelled from her high school.<\/p>\n

Carroll\u00a0was being held in the Escambia County Jail on $8,500 bond. Her daughter was in custody at the Escambia Regional Juvenile Detention Center.<\/p>\n

It was unclear whether they had an attorney who could comment.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
