‘Jeopardy!’ winner charged with computer crimes
ADRIAN, Mich. — Cyber shenanigans for 200? A former “Jeopardy!’’ winner has been charged with illegally accessing co-workers’ email accounts at a small Michigan college.
Stephanie Jass is a former history professor at Adrian College. She appeared in Lenawee County court on Tuesday, charged with unauthorized access to a computer and using a computer to commit a crime.
No other details were released. But The Daily Telegram in Adrian reports that state police investigated after getting complaints from college staff earlier this year.
The Associated Press left a message seeking comment for Jass’ attorney Wednesday.
Jass won seven games on “Jeopardy!’’ in 2012. Adrian College declined to say when Jass stopped working at the school.
