Ohio Teacher Guilty in Sex Case
[Previous 11/11/10 post]
(Zanesville, Ohio) In August 2010, a 32-year-old history teacher at Mid-East Career and Technology Center, Bridget E. Todd, was accused of sexual contact with a 17-year-old male student.

Yesterday, Todd pleaded guilty in Muskingum County Common Pleas Court to sexual battery and pandering obscenity involving a minor.

Prosecutors said the contact went on for months on school grounds and outside of school. Todd and the student also exchanged nude images of each other.

Mid-East Career Center said Todd was placed on administrative leave on Sept. 24 after an investigation revealed evidence of "teacher professional misconduct."

Information on sentencing is unavailable.
