Michael T. Campbell, 16, remains in the Pima County jail in lieu of $25,000 bond. Authorities said Campbell has a criminal record and has been arrested five times since January 2004 on charges including domestic violence and credit-card theft. At Marana High, Campbell was enrolled in a computer-based class where students learn curriculum and answer questions at individual computer stations. The program keeps track of each student's course grade. Police said that on Oct. 18, Campbell somehow acquired his teacher's user name to the system and got access to his grade. He then allegedly received money from three students in the class between Oct. 18 and Oct. 21 to change their grades, according to police. Campbell later gave the access information to another student, who turned him in to school authorities. _________________________________________ Open Source Vulnerability Database (OSVDB) Everything is Vulnerable - http://www.osvdb.org/
