Muncie, INDIANA

Some people deserve our respect.

July 23, 2007 - A Muncie, Indiana judge refused to accept a plea agreement for a school secretary who was accused of stealing from several school accounts.

The deal would have allowed Judith Lynne Straub, 50,to plead guilty to theft, a class D felony carrying a standard 18-month sentence, but limited any jail time she could receive to 60 days.

Instead, Judge Robert Barnet Jr. last week declined to accept the agreement, and rescheduled Straub's trial for Oct. 3.
