Teacher Tawni Wimberley Gets No Jail for Student Sex

Free Image hosting by ImageSnap(Flagstaff, Arizona) In February 2008, a computer and technology teacher at Flagstaff High School, Tawni Wimberley, was accused of engaging in sex with several teens.

In September 2008, 30-year-old Wimberley pleaded guilty to two counts of sexual conduct with a minor in accordance with a plea agreement.

Yesterday, Judge Dan Slayton sentenced Wimberley to a suspended six-month jail term and three years probation.
"I am suspending that sentence based upon your continued attendance and completion of counseling," said Slayton.

Although she is not facing jail time, Wimberley will have to perform 100 hours of community service and be on supervised probation for the next three years. Judge Slayton also said she cannot have any contact with the victims. She is also not allowed to have unsupervised contact with non-immediate family children under the age of 18.
Wimberley was also ordered to spend the rest of her life as a registered sex offender.
