Debra Lafave, Ex-Teacher in Sex Case, Ordered Back on Probation
Story here. Excerpt:
'Debra Lafave, the former Tampa, Fla., middle school teacher and pin-up model who pleaded guilty in 2005 to having sex with a 14-year-old student, has been ordered back on probation.
A trial judge released Lafave from the remainder of her probation obligation before she served her full sentence of three years house arrest and seven years probation. However, an appellate court called the decision to release her early an “abuse of judicial power,” according to The Associated Press.
Today, responding to the appellate court ruling, Circuit Judge Lisa Campbell in Hillsborough County, Fla., reinstated LaFave’s probation, ordering the mother of twins to serve another four years and two months probation effective Dec. 19, 2012, to observe a curfew from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m., and to stay away from schools, according to AP and ABC News affiliate WFTS in Tampa, Fla.'
