...exert an influence. Holding up a shirt: "[sizes] 2-10, flat-to-boob, everyone has looked great in it. Hobbs [Ashley R. Hobbs ’06] was wearing it with jeans earlier." Of a rack of suits: "Alexa [L.M. Von Tobel ’06] got a pantsuit and a skirt suit for recruiting." Each mention of one of their friends piques the girls’ excitement, and they grab more from the racks. "Because of your blockmates, there are, like, 70 pieces lying on the bed," Remele tells Houghteling, who came with a crowd. He highlights a green...

But four counts remained--obstruction, conspiracy and two charges of making false statements. Stewart, grim-faced and dressed in her ritual uniform, a dark pantsuit, sat and showed no emotion as Judge Miriam Goldman Cedarbaum repeated the word guilty four times.
