The school district issued this statement about Abram's arrest:
Mr. Antroy Abram, a former employee
of the Jasper County School District, was arrested Wednesday by the South
Carolina Law Enforcement Division and charged with first degree cyber
crime.
Mr. Abram previously worked
with the Jasper County School District for nine years and at one time served as
Director of Technology. He resigned from the district on Dec. 14, 2011.
The investigation began a few months
ago due to the libraries in the district calling the district office to report
they couldn't log on to their system. The district then discovered missing
data, immediately turning all information concerning the matter over to the
Hardeeville Police Department who in turn notified the South Carolina Law
Enforcement Division. At this time, the district will have no further comment
on the matter as the case is pending.
