Khan Can, and Does: Student Hacks Into School's Computers

Omar Khan, an 18-year-old student at Orange County's prestigious Tesoro High School, one of the country's best, and which was a location on the Real Housewives of Orange County reality show, was arrested and charged with breaking into the school and changing his grades from Fs to As. If he's convicted on the 69 charges that include altering and stealing public records, computer fraud, burglary, identity theft, receiving stolen property, and conspiracy, he could spend 38 years in prison.

Prosecutors claim that the teenager, who is alleged to have broken into the school late at night with a stolen master key, also changed the grades of 12 other students, and that he installed spyware on school hard drives that allowed him to access the computers from remote locations.
