Like mother, like daughter.
A daughter of terror lawyer was so intent on being present in court when her mother was sentenced to prison on fraud and other charges that she committed fraud herself, city investigators charged yesterday.
Brenna Lynne Stewart, 45, a high-school gym teacher and licensed attorney, allegedly submitted phony doctors' notes and an altered copy of her aunt's death certificate to her supervisors at Bronx Leadership Academy II to play hooky on nine different occasions.

Details of Brenna's antics chronicled in the letter suggest that her prowess for note passing was just as sloppy as that of her mother............

Not too many of those around.
The phony doctor’s notes were from her sister, who isn’t licensed to practice in New York!
The whole family is sleazy.

Why would anybody want an overweight leftist lawyer with ties to Islamic radicals as a high-school gym teacher?

Can’t answer that, but wasn’t she the starting left guard for the Aggies in ‘82?
I don’t follow Pro and College sports in general, but I’m pretty sure that she wasn’t there.
That deleted post was your dupe?
Yes, it was.
played both ways...offense and defense.
Probably still plays both ways, IYKWIM. ;)
(Do I really have to put a /sarcasm tag here?)
This is ridiculous. Who among us needs a note from a doctor to get at day off work for personal reasons? Notes are for students, not teachers. This presumably unionized teacher has no vacation or personal time to use? Why the need to lie?
It's New York city. That's the norm. The schools commissioner, Joel Klein, who was mentioned in the article? He's the same one who let a teacher keep his position in the public schools after that teacher raped a student (male-on-male) in a custodian's closet a couple years ago. It's not a city. It's a cesspool.
I'm not sure this is a public school. Went to their website. Not a clue as to where they get their funding. My guess is that she used up her allowable sick/vacation time and needed to document the need for more days off. Since she's a lawyer, I guess they decided not to argue with her.
