NKU professor and cross-destroying vandal Sally Jacobsen has now issued an apology. Tim at ProLifeBlogs.com has the details of her retreat and the university’s formal reprimand.

Latest on the police investigation from The Northerner Online:

Students involved in the removal of the crosses have the possibility of facing criminal charges of a class D felony, according to NKU police. Though no charges have been pressed by the Northern Right to Life group, NKU Officer Rob Yelton said they are imminent. “The group has indicated that they are willing to press charges,” he said.

However, Yelton and Lt. Col. Jeffrey Martin don’t believe that the students involved will face legal retribution. “At this time, we don’t anticipate the students being charged,” Martin said. “They were intimidated by an authority figure into believing that this was not a criminal act.”

The investigation, Yelton said, is three-quarters of the way finished and Commonwealth Attorney Jack Porter is expected to call the department shortly. “The prosecutor will make the final decision,” Yelton said.

Yelton and Martin also said although the prosecutor does have the right to charge the students for their involvement, he also has other options. “The prosecutor has a right to grant (the students) immunity,” Martin said. “He could choose to prosecute, but I just don’t see that happening.”

Police believe the prosecutor will pursue charges against Jacobsen. “I would anticipate that (Jacobsen) will be charged,” Martin said. “The probable cause is overwhelming.”

Votruba said he didn’t think Jacobsen knew what an impact she would make. “I don’t think Professor Jacobsen understood the full impact of her choice,” he said.
