Excerpt:

'(CNN) -- In a last-minute effort to keep herself out of prison, a 25-year-old middle school teacher pleaded guilty Tuesday to having sex with a 14-year-old.

Debra Lafave, a former remedial reading teacher at Greco Middle School in Temple Terrace, Florida, pleaded guilty to two counts of lewd and lascivious behavior, and was sentenced to three years of house arrest followed by seven years probation. She also must register as a sex offender.'

The question of disparity of sentencing due to the perp's sex does get covered here. Excerpt:

'Debra Lafave's plea deal raises the question of whether there's a double standard when it comes to female offenders involved in a sexual crime.

Would a man in the same situation have received a similar sentence?'"
