The Pen Warrior fight with the pen for it is mightier than the sword

"What's your friend's problem?" she asked Farley, who told her to get away from him and to "shut the f- up," according to the police report.

Their angry exchange marked the beginning of a high school beef that would have an unfathomable result.

Though the two were not even the original combatants, they sniped at each other the rest of the day and into the next.

Tiana, who took the train back to Overbrook every day, called her ex-boyfriend to meet her at the station and ride home with her.

Authorities sucker-punched Tiana, though she stood 40 yards away and never threw a punch herself.

They didn't just throw the book at her - they pummeled her with the entire Criminal Code, nine charges in all: simple assault, aggravated assault, terroristic threats, three different counts of harassment, two counts of conspiracy, and reckless endangerment.

Farley is allowed to testify without repercussions. But Cann, Tiana's primary witness, is pulled from the stand after the prosecutor asks for a conference, according to Tiana's lawyer. A public defender called by the court then tells him he could be criminally charged if he testifies. He doesn't.

Common Pleas Court Judge Charles C. Keeler was clearly aggravated by Tiana's lawyer. "My client's an honor student, waiting for the train to go home," William J. Ciancaglini said. "If this were a white honor student and a big black kid was yelling in her face, guess who's getting arrested. It's the black kid, guaranteed. . . . I'm sorry if I've offended the court."

"You have," said the judge, who admonished him with "you be quiet" and "you shut up" later in the proceedings.

Hall, You are the true bigot. She should have been in class instead of walking the halls. AS soon as blacks stop crying about race every time they are held accountabble, the better off society will be.

racist article written by a racist writer...should we be surprised? welcome to blackadelphia...where the inmates do run the asylum. badly i might add lol

Even if she wasn't guilty of all these crimes in this incident, she would have inevitably committed all these crimes and then some.

why is it always violence that surrounds african americans? I grew up in delco and the few african americans we had in our school, were involved in about 90% of all the fights? Why is that? Genetics? Intelligence? Just asking.

All I know is that in the past 4 years my neighborhood has had a huge influx of black people and a huge influx of crime...stop blaming racism for your own actions...oh and thanks for dropping the value of my house even more than the economy did, to the point where I cant sell it without a loss

So she calls the homies to defend her honor and the homies promptly do what they do best-assault people-and it's the school's fault? Ususally the homies are cuttin' and shootin' each other, except when they form a mob and assault Asians, but apparently there's a lower level of tolerance for this type of thing in Delaware County

American Africans will be crying and moaning until the end of time. Pains in the a**. I curse the forefathers who are responsible for bringing them over here. Hope their coffins are leaking.
