Pennsylvania Teacher Gets Prison in Sex Case - Updated

(Montgomery County, Pennsylvania) In May 2010, 37-year-old married mother-of-three and former math teacher at North Penn High School, Heather Zeo, pleaded guilty to misdemeanor corruption of minors stemming from a sex tryst with one male student and Internet sexting with another.

As a result, Zeo was sentenced to one to 23 months in the Montgomery County Prison.

Documents indicate that Zeo communicated with two 17-year-old boys via Facebook, one sexual in nature.

The student involved in the affair allegedly “made out” with the woman a half-dozen times in her homeroom class, E-139, during the second and fourth periods when no one else was there, according to the affidavit.[…]

During the second week of May 2009, Zeo and the teen arranged to meet at a shopping center where a Giant Food is located in Montgomery Township. The teenager drove his family car there; Zeo a green minivan.

After rendezvousing in the parking lot in front of a vacant store at about 8:30 p.m., the teacher invited the student into her minivan. Once inside, the two sat on a rear bench seat, kissing and fondling one another for about a half-hour, then split up and went home, authorities allege.

The two arranged a second meeting via Facebook a few days later and again rendezvoused at the shopping center. During sexual foreplay, Zeo offered the teen a condom and they had sexual intercourse. She reportedly retrieved the condom afterward and put it in a grocery bag.

"Here, let me offer you a condom."

(tick, tick, tick, tick, ....)

"Finished? Give it here so I can pack it with my groceries."

That's different. Zeo starts her sentence on September 27. The delay wasn't explained.
