AKRON, Ohio (AP) – An Ohio woman has been fined $1,000 and sentenced to probation after being convicted of trashing a former co-worker’s office with glitter and purple Silly String.

A judge in Akron also ordered 25-year-old Samantha Lockhart on Tuesday to complete 50 hours of community service and to write an apology.

She had been a clerk for the Summit County Fiscal Office when police say in January she smashed photos, threw glitter and sprayed Silly String in the office after sending a resignation notice.

Prosecutors say Lockhart also destroyed a computer, scanner, printer and keyboard.

Lockhart told the Akron Beacon after sentencing that she didn’t do everything she was accused of doing.

She said everyone makes mistakes, but a prosecutor told the judge Lockhart doesn’t have any remorse.
