"Later, she sent out an email to the students involved encouraging them to resist talking to the police and making it difficult for authorities to find them to question them about the vandalism. In the email, Jacobsen attacked pro-life groups. "
Lets see, obstruction of justice would seem to be just the starter. Ample reason to not let this first time offender off easy. Only problem is she shouldn't be allowed to retire, she should be fired.
