The headline is striking:
“Facebook Photo Convicts School Aide of Drinking Charge”
What: Facebook photograph shows part-time teaching aide at Ohio high school with three cheerleaders holding Smirnoff bottles.
When: The Court of Appeals of Ohio, 12th District, rules on Feb. 9.

Hause, who worked as a part-time teaching aide at Springboro High School, near Dayton, Ohio, was photographed in her basement posing with three cheerleaders holding Smirnoff bottles. The cheerleaders were friends with her son.
