Judge Lectures Woman for Ex-Lax Prank

A New Portland woman was ordered to perform 50 hours of community service for helping her daughter and two other teenage girls bake cookies laced with a laxative that were given to a teacher.

Julie Hunt, 43, was charged with misdemeanor assault last month after a police investigation into the prank at Carrabec Community School in Anson that sickened four seventh- and eighth-grade students.

Police said Hunt showed the girls, who were 13 and 14, how to crush Ex-Lax pills and mix them in with the cookie. The cookies were left on the desk of a teacher with a note that read, "We made these cookies especially for you, hope you enjoy them."
