A former substitute teacher who became pregnant during an affair with a 17-year-old high school football captain was sentenced on Tuesday to three days in jail and five years of probation.
Christine Scarlett, 40, pleaded guilty May 11 to five felony charges - three counts of sexual battery and two counts of disseminating obscene materials to a juvenile. The charges carried a potential 17 years in prison.
Jeez a 17 year old boy has consensual oral sex with a teenage girl and he gets 10 years. A 40 year old substitute teacher has sex with a 17 year old boy and she gets a slap on the wrist. Oh BTW the 17 year old boy the teacher had sex with was brain damaged.
The student and his mother explained in court that he was unable to think through what was happening with the teacher because he had suffered brain damage at birth. His mother told the judge that she met with Scarlett at a school conference, explained her son's mental limitations and had hoped the teacher would be helpful.
The student read a prepared statement in which he referred to the past four years as a nightmare for his family.
"You should have been helping me, because you were my teacher," he said, addressing Scarlett. "You knew I had brain problems, and you were so much older than I was."
Where is the logic in sending a young man who had a promising future ahead of him to jail for 10 years for having oral sex with a young woman only a few years younger then him, with HER CONSENT, when a 40 year old woman gets a slap on the wrist for having sex (and getting pg) with a brain damaged teen 23 years younger then her?
