Kathy O’L responds to the blog-post “Cassandra: guilty of ‘sexual assault’ because she was sexually assaulted” (quoted in part and edited for clarity):

I was unfortunately in the same punishment place in 1997. I personally was not aware of the allegations or what she was there for. BESIDES THE FACT SHE HAD BEEN THROUGH A HORRIBLE ORDEAL!! I do know for a fact that she was the nicest down to earth person if that’s what got her in trouble….Cassandra’s a strong kind bright woman. I remember everyday how she would break down about what she had lost and how people judged her and how she loved teaching!

Obviously, “Break down” means crying. So everyday, in the presence of this inmate and who knows how many other prisoners, she’d sob, perhaps at length, violently and uncontrollably. And, yes, being the “nicest person” who “loved teaching,” and her students, even a criminal and predator who sexually-harassed, molested, and raped her, is “what got her in trouble,” ironically the cause of her “horrible ordeal.”
