Story here. Excerpt:

'FRANKFORD -- The state is awaiting the results of DNA tests as it proceeds with charges against a former elementary school teacher accused of sexual encounters with one of her students, an assistant county attorney said today.
During a brief pre-indictment conference in Superior Court in Newton, Sussex County Assistant Prosecutor Francis Koch also told Judge N. Peter Conforti that the defendant, Lindsay Massaro, has applied early for entry into the pretrial intervention program.
...
Entry into the PTI program, a probationary program for nonviolent, first-time offenders that's a part of many plea agreements, requires approval from the prosecutor's office.
...
Massaro was charged with second-degree sexual assault, third-degree endangering the welfare of a minor and fourth-degree criminal sexual contact. The second-degree charge carries a possible 10-year prison sentence.'
