When graffiti artist Shepard Fairey was arrested for vandalism in February, the charges sparked furious debate around Boston about the sometimes blurry line between art and crime.

At about the same time, and with considerably less fanfare, another graffiti case was playing out in the courts. Danielle Bremner, a 24-year-old New Yorker, was charged with 13 counts of vandalism and defacing property for spray painting her moniker, “Utah,’’ in the Back Bay and East Boston.

Last week she pleaded guilty to the charges, and on Thursday she is expected to be sentenced to six months in jail, a sentence prosecutors said is extremely rare but just.

Likely prison sentence for graffiti artist stokes debate

Apparently, Graffiti is dead in Eastern Mass:

Sad as it might be to anyone who does appreciate a vibrant urban landscape, to which a certain kind of graffiti can contribute, all signs point to the downfall of a once-thriving graffiti scene in Eastern Massachusetts.
