A teen accused of rigging her homecoming queen vote with her mom will be charged as an adult.
A teen charged as an adult has pleaded not guilty to multiple felony counts stemming from a Florida high school homecoming queen contest that prosecutors allege she and her mother rigged by hacking into a school district computer system. If convicted, Emily Rose Grover, 18, a student at Tate High School in Pensacola, faces a maximum sentence of 16 years in prison, officials said. The state attorney's office in Escambia County, Florida, confirmed to ABC News on Wednesday that Grover has been charged as an adult. "She was 17 when the offense occurred, but shortly after they picked her up she turned 18," a spokesperson for the state attorney's office said.More Related News
