The Tulsa Public School District’s suspended Athletic Director has been given a letter of termination from the district.

TPS officials say Stephanie Spring had 10 days to request a hearing after getting the letter. She requested a hearing on Wednesday.

Spring and assistants Trish Pruitt and Jon Wheeler were suspended with pay during an investigation into allegations they violated the Oklahoma Computer Crimes Act by hacking into another employee’s computer. Pruitt has returned to work. Wheeler has requested a hearing but a date has not yet been set.

Spring’s hearing is scheduled for February 7th.

Why hasn't the victim been re-instated to her job? She was fired for reporting the crime....something is rotten here. I hope parents with kids in TPS are paying close attention to all this....I wonder how much crap TPS has to finally do before the state decides to investigate them and do some much needed house cleaning, it has been one snafu after the other for several years now, and it just continues day after day, everything from A to Z, glad my kids are'nt in the Tulsa school system, and that they attended BA when they were in school.

Who cares why....it is criminal to hack into another employees computer, they should all be fired, if the TPS Director thinks the victims computer contained something illegal or immoral, THEN they should find out using proper, legal means.

Fox 23 needs to look into WHY Stephanie Springs hacked in to that computer. It would be a great story if the the truth ever comes out. Hint: The real story is in the why.
