I already read that one, where do you think I got the quote I provided you? Did you read it?
Anyway. I went ahead and read two more to try and get a more concise explanation of what was proven in court here are some notes:
In an alleged deepfake video — altered through software to make one person appear as another — the same girl was depicted to be vaping. That video was sent to the coaches of the Doylestown-based cheerleading squad in an attempt to get the girl kicked off the team.
We know this was not fake but it was sent to the coaches, not the parents. Doesn’t seem like someone who is concerned about the girl in the video. Seems like someone who wants to fuck up their cheerleading career.
In one of the calls the girl received, she was told, “You should kill yourself.”
Two other parents came forward to police in December 2020 to report that their daughters were targeted with similar calls and texts, including salacious images that placed them in situations that never occurred. Some images included cruel captions.
A search of Spone’s phone by police found the images that were sent in the messages stored on her mobile device.
So we’ve confirmed she had images with cruel captions on her phone. That IS harassment and again, not the behavior of a concerned parent.
Prosecutors said that Spone used several anonymous phone numbers to contact the girls’ mothers and the cheerleading team coaches. Spone hid her phone numbers using an app called Pinger, prosecutors said.
Magisterial District Judge Regina Armitage allowed the trial to move forward in Bucks County Common Pleas Court. Spone remained accused of making inappropriate calls and sending hostile text messages about the three girls from incognito phone numbers.
The three girls and their mothers testified during the trial that they were scared after receiving the messages because they didn’t know who was sending them. Spone never identified herself when asked who the texts were from, prosecutors said.
Spone was not behaving like a concerned mother, prosecutors said, because she initially went to the cheerleading team’s coaches instead of the parents. Spone knew the mothers of all three girls and could have contacted them individually through her own number, investigators said.
She fucked around and ended up having her name drug through the mud. Same as she was trying to do to the girls. I have no sympathy. Is the deepfake thing stupid? Yes, but that’s on the cops for not investigating properly before making statements. As usual.
