Five months in jail for married teacher accused of having sex with four students
Article here. What would have been the sentence if a male teacher was convicted of having sex with 4 underage girls? Judges, male or female, always apply a double standard. Interesting comments at the bottom. Excerpt:
'A teacher who began an affair with an underage student just two months after getting married has been jailed for five months.
Rachel Farrell was accused of having sex with four students in the months after her marriage in June 2010.
But after three of the teens refused to co-operate with a police investigation the 26 year old was charged with one count of underage sex.
Farrell, who has since been divorced by her husband, pleaded guilty to corrupting a minor.
...
She then surprised Judge Giodarno by telling him she thought the sentence of five months in jail and three years probation was correct.
After the hearing, Mills said he will appeal the sentence, adding that the district attorney's office did not specifically request jail time for Farrell.'
