She was actually found not guilty. She had sex with multiple students, but since the defense was able to prove she thought all of them were 18, she was acquitted on all charges. I mean if this case was in 1993 instead of 2013, this would've never even gotten this far. Technology like cell phones and social media, which everyone uses now, by both young and old, makes secrets more difficult to keep. Also, a lot of teachers caught doing this are in their twenty's and may not be emotionally mature enough to teach students who are basically their peers. She even told police: “I knew I shouldn’t have worked at a high school for something like this happening; and look, it did.”
She also explained that she saw about six or seven of the boys near the cafeteria on the afternoon prior to the sexual encounter in the gym’s basement and exposed herself. If this was on a college campus this would've been a complete non issue. A 22 year old and an 18 year old are generally seen as peers and wouldn't garner any attention. Maybe she could get a teaching job at a local college? With a not guilty verdict, their could be a chance for her to go somewhere where you don't get thrown under the bus for having relations with consenting adults.
