Ex-Teacher Admits To Sex With Three Teen Boys in Plea Deal

Story here. Excerpt:

'A former high school teacher accused of having sexual relationships with three of her students took a plea deal Wednesday, crying as she accepted the agreement in court.

One of the boys was 16 and two were 17 when they were having sex with Brianne Altice, 35. One testified that he considered her to be his girlfriend during their yearlong sexual relationship.

But the boys were all minors, and Utah law also says a person cannot consent to sex if the other person is in a position of special trust. Altice, who taught high school English, pleaded guilty to three counts of forcible sexual abuse in exchange for prosecutors dropping 11 other counts, including several first-degree felonies.

School officials knew about Altice's inappropriate behavior and didn't do enough to protect the students, the boys and their parents say. In a lawsuit against the Davis School District, they say the running joke at the high school was, "Who is Ms. Altice sleeping with now?"
...
Altice is scheduled to be sentenced on May 28. Each count carries a possible sentence of 1 to 15 years in prison.'

She may be sentenced to a year (3 counts, one year per count, concurrent service), with time served in lockup being counted. So I predict < 1 year after sentencing. Or, probation and registry as a sex offender. Bet she still gets a new job in a school setting doing something.
