Why?

Because the transcript is littered with statements from the judge like "In general, [teacher's husband] was overbearing, grandiose and had an excuse or comeback for everything. He was unable to answer a question with a straight answer. It seemed as if [he] made up his testimony as the case went on, always to favor his position. " and " [teacher's husband] was many times unworthy of any credibility, despite the fact that he is a practicing attorney. " I know women who have crappy taste in men, but I feel like you should get that out of your system by the time you're in your 50s.

I wonder if this is a teacher in Vienna...

Don't start guessing and who cares. Teachers are people. They get married, divorced and remarried.

+1 I am glad I could only see her profile pic on FB. She has common sense with privacy settings. She's young but that's okay, I hope. I would be the first to post to any of you to not worry about a new teacher...

I kind of assumed that in this day and age you just google people as a matter of course.

I look up what subjects they are certified to teach in the state.

Same.

Do you just want to know what the teacher looks like so you will recognize him/her, or do you make assumptions based on age/race?

How weird.

Teachers aren't allowed to drink wine?

I just looked at that site. The reviews I read seemed to be written by upper elementary and middle school students.
