"The kid broke into this around Dec. 15 and what he was doing, which less than amusing, was ... sending out really rude messages," board chairman Carolyn Parrish said yesterday. The main computer for international network, called CHIMO, is at the board's Mississauga office. "It was a little embarrassing. Obvisously we had to shut it down for a while," she said. About 900 teachers from Vancouver to Newfoundland and south to Texas were using the computer network when messages started appearing. Using his home computer, the youth discovered the passwords of several teachers and left "alarming" notes in their electronic mailboxes. Peel police Sergeant John rennie said yesterday. Police would not say how they caught the suspect because that would be submitted in court as evidence. A 17 year old Morningstar Secondary School in Mississauga has been charged with 10 counts of unlawful use of a computer. He cannot be named under the Young Offenders Act.
