[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you think the DC Coucil will engage on this and follow through with requiring the OSSE and DCPS to feret out those parents enrolling students from outside the district? Is this really considered felony fraud as was stated in one of the articles?  If so, why no jail time?  Why aren't wages garnished for those found guilty?[/quote]

Because when it was done before in some other state, there was a national outcry of injustice and the poor being penalized twice. You cannot get blood from a stone or money from an indigent/bankrupt person. I think if you really want to get at enforcement, D.C. needs to start charging the MD jurisdictions for the cost of educating their residents. That way it is guaranteed money and then there is an incentive for MD to do some enforcement.[/quote] that's stupid, the poor aren't driving escalades , Acuras and Infinits and we all know how much they pay union workers in metro and federal contractors. These people are probably making 180k a year and living it up in a $500k pg mcmansion [/quote]

Weren't people saying they dug into all the lawsuits of that one woman in the Caller and that she filed for bankruptcy? As an enforcement mechanism, it is better to go after the deeper pockets. Force MD jurisdictions to pay D.C. for educating their residents and force them to pay the costs of enforcement. Maybe MD will argue that they pay the costs in speed and red light camera fines.[/quote]
