A daughter of Lynne F. Stewart, the defense lawyer convicted of aiding terrorism by smuggling messages out of prison for a client, was arrested on Monday on charges of forgery and falsifying documents she submitted to take time off from her teaching job, some of it during her mother’s trial and sentencing.

Lynne Stewart in 2006 at her home in South Bombay, N.Y.
The daughter, Brenna Stewart, 46, was in custody and was awaiting her arraignment in the Bronx. The most serious charges against her, forgery and criminal possession of a forged instrument, are felonies that would carry a maximum of seven years in prison if she is convicted, said Steven Reed, a spokesman for the Bronx district attorney, Robert T. Johnson.
The charges against Ms. Stewart, a physical education teacher at Bronx Leadership Academy II, are based on an inquiry by Richard J. Condon, the special commissioner of investigation for the city schools.

Nice family - I see they share values...
Given that here mommie got a little over two years of Club Fed incarceration for high treason, what's the over/under for her sentence?
I'm going with time served, and an apology from the judge.
MIke
Assuming a conviction, of course...
A family of LOONS!
Jail time for faking an illness for sick leave? “Buck fever” runs rampant where I used to live, every hunting season. If this hard line enforcement catches on, deer will be overrunning the country in a couple of years.
Apple. Tree. Fall not far.
This is harrassment of the family in order to get back at Lynn Stewart, who recieved a ridiculously lenient slap on the wrist for her activities aiding terrorists.
I am of two minds about this. On the one hand, the authorities should not be abusing their authority like this. On the other hand, I would really like to see Lynn Stewart suffer.
The rotten ones neither roll nor bounce...
· The telephone number appearing on two physicians’ notes submitted to excuse
Stewart’s absences in October 2006 and January 2007 corresponded to the
number listed on her DOE Emergency Contact sheet for Lynne Stewart;
· an April 4, 2006 physician’s note which Stewart submitted concerning two
absences that month specified the dates as occurring in April 2005;
· a death certificate which Stewart submitted in November 2005 to document her
attendance at a family funeral during the previous month showed an issuance date
of December 11, 2005.
To explain her ninth absence, Brenna Stewart submitted a death certificate in the name of an aunt, Mary Stewart, on which the date was altered, to
document one day of bereavement leave in October 2005; Mary Stewart actually passed away in November 2002.
Turd. Bird.
Ugly as a mud fence inside and out just like her momma.
(Red Badge of Courage award to the bloke who had to impregnate Lynne Stewart).
2. Somebody did it with Lynn Stewart?
GUILTY!!!
