Texas Educator Gets Prison for Sexting - Updated

(San Antonio, Texas) Federal charges against 43-year-old Cynthia Stewart have been dropped in favor of state prosecution for online solicitation of a minor, considered more appropriate.

This week, a report indicates that Cynthia Stewart, former guidance counselor at Judson ISD Olympia Elementary School, has been convicted of felony online solicitation of a minor. As a result, Stewart was sentenced to six years in prison.
Cynthia Stewart, 43, met a 15-year-old student through a local sports association and starting communicating with him using Facebook. Their relationship grew and Stewart sent sexually explicit pictures of herself to the boy on her cellphone.

Once she is released, Stewart will have to register for a sex offender for 10 years. She will no longer be allowed to be a teacher or school counselor.
