Beverly Teacher Who Plead Guilty in 22 Year-Old Stabbing Seeks to Return to Teaching

Elizabeth Spoon, 40, plea guilty this past May in Peabody District Court to Assault & Battery with a Dangerous Weapon for stabbing a man who was fighting with her boyfriend 22 years ago. In exchange for pleading Guilty, she was sentenced to 3 years’ probation.
