A Texas middle school principal is accused of encouraging her daughter to hide a cell phone camera inside a high school girls’ locker room to spy on a coach accused of being too stern with basketball players.

Wendee Long, principal of Wayside Middle School in Fort Worth, surrendered to authorities on Monday in Denton County. She was charged with improper photography or visual recording and unlawful interception, use or disclosure of wire, oral or electronic communications, also referred to as wiretapping, The Fort Worth Star-Telegram reported.

If convicted, Long faces up to 20 years in prison and a $20,000 fine. Long was released after posting $25,000 bail, the Star-Telegram reported.

Investigators said Long's two daughters played on the Argyle High School girls' basketball team and complained that the coach was too stern with players, according to television station WFAA of Dallas-Fort Worth.

3. She'll lose her job and get a minimal sentence.

Probably fair enough...

4. Now, don't jump on me, but in this day & age when we have cameras watching us virtually anywhere we

happen to be, I just can't imagine that Ms. Long could be facing 20 years in prison, and her daughter isn't charged at all, not that I think she should be. Some of our laws are just out of whack.
