Oklahoma Teacher Gets Prison for Student Sex - Update

(Oklahoma City, Oklahoma) Yesterday, 48-year-old former Putnam City High School Spanish teacher Lisa Kays pleaded guilty to multiple felony counts stemming from episodes of sex with a male student.

As a result of convictions on three counts of second-degree rape and two counts of forcible oral sodomy, Kays was sentenced to four years in prison and six years probation.

Assistant District Attorney Suzanne Lavenue said Kays groomed the victim, who contemplated suicide, and violated him in her classroom and in a car in front of his parents' house.

“She basically used her classroom as a hotel room,” the prosecutor told the judge.

Kays was also ordered to register as a sex offender.
