Interesting story about a high school student newspaper investigating a new principal's credentials, forcing her resignation.

I think there's more here. The school board and hiring committee have some responsibility. A big party of the story was how easy it was to get this candidate. You just had to do a Google search. Were they just rubber stamping things? Was the job in the bag all along, and - if so - why? Who is this woman, why did she want this job, and why did she lie? Was there criminality? Was anything said under oath that can be prosecuted? It looks like officials are falling over themselves congratulating the students. Is it because they want to get on the journalists' good side and are afraid of any further questions?
