The Responsibility Police are hot on the trail of Laura Krishna. I’m serious, this story left me speechless. On one hand, how could this girl be sooo stupid. Why would you put your academic future in the hands of some idiot that you don’t know at all. Not only put your academic future in their hands, but pay them money for the opportunity to make you look like an idiot. Five pages is not much to write, give me a break, It couldn’t take more than a couple of hours. She would have done a lot better to have simply gotten a zero on the assignment. I’ve never understood the time and energy, not to mention the money and the risk, that some people go to in order to not have to write a simple paper. You just really have to wonder. That being said, I am a little shocked by the trouble the guy went to in order to make sure she got caught. It is sort of funny, but I just wonder where this motivation comes from. I have a moral objection to tattling that nags me, even when I am in a position of authority. I feel very strongly against cheating and plagiarism – and I can’t imagine doing it myself (I’m entirely too paranoid, hard on myself, and compulsively honest, added to the fact that I have an amazing aversion to getting in trouble. I don’t like it, I was always in trouble as a child, being ADHD made me a target and my behavior deserved reprimand I’m sure, but nothing upsets me more than being reprimanded by authority) – but these feelings are coupled with just as strong an aversion to being a snitch. I can control myself, and I don’t want to be the judge or the controller of others. But I don’t feel that bad for people that act really, really, really irresponsible and stupid.

This girl should have listened to her parents when they told her not to trust men she meets online
