'BROWNWOOD -- The former foster mom accused of having sex with a 13-year-old foster child in her care, and having a child by the boy, was found guilty Friday and sentenced to 10 years probation.

The jury deliberated less than an hour before returning a guilty verdict about 11:30 a.m. against Phylicia Humphries, 26, for sexual assault of a child.

But it took more than five hours of deliberation before the jury assessed 10 years probation and a $10,000 fine. The sentence was handed down by 35th District Judge Stephen Ellis at around 7 p.m. Ellis added 90 days in jail as a condition of the sentence. Humphries will begin serving the 90-day sentence at the Brown County Jail on Dec. 29. Humphries also will be restricted from being around children under 17 and must register as a sex offender.'
