, "It is our opinion that Ms. Carpenter does not serve as a role model, nor
is suitable to provide transportation services for the Princeton School
District, in light of recent media reports of her husband/friend to be a
vampyre who is running for public office, and Ms. Carpenter informing other
bus garage employees that she is a witch."

has done a fair amount of work in civil and human rights, says Carpenter
may have a case.

"She may be able to challenge the firing based on first amendment
freedom of religion if she can show that that interferes with the spiritual
force in her life," Leventhal says.
