She should be glad it wasn't a facebook "poke"
Fantastic quote:
In one of the first rulings of its kind, a Staten Island judge has said that a teenage girl could be charged with violating a restraining order by using MySpace.com to reach out to people she was told not to contact.
Judge Sciarrino's order, which managed to quote both Wikipedia and "Hamlet," meanwhile served as something of a primer for the technologically challenged.
"Those friends thou hast and their adoption tried, Grapple them unto thy soul with hoops of steel," the judge wrote, adding: "But not when an order of protection prohibits someone from communicating with another."
"While it is true," he also wrote, "that the person who receives the 'friend request' could simply deny the request to become 'friends,' that request was still a contact and 'no contact' was allowed by the order of the protection."
