The sentence was imposed after the mother of one of the victims, a 14-year-old boy, told the court that she believes the former Davidsen Middle School teacher "maliciously" preyed on her son's emotional disabilities.
"She had access to their charts as far as their emotional behaviors," the mother said. "That takes time for you to know and to actually plan it out. I feel that she was very conniving in picking these boys out and preying on them. She used that to manipulate them and seduce them."
