Former Boise teacher gets jail time and 10 years of probation in sex case

Story here. Excerpt:

'Michelle Farley apologized to her family, friends and "family of teachers" for having an inappropriate relationship with a 17-year-old student last year.

"I want to apologize to (the teen) and his family for the embarrassment and hurt I caused," the former Borah High philosophy teacher said. "It hurts me that I have hurt so many people because what I did was so wrong."

Farley left the courtroom in handcuffs Friday, on her way to the Ada County Jail, where she could spend the next six months after pleading guilty to a charge of felony sexual battery of a minor.

Fourth District Judge Timothy Hansen told Farley she can ask for an early release once she completes a class on "thinking errors" at the jail. But she will spend the next decade on probation, have to undergo sex-offender treatment and pay a $2,000 fine. '
