A former Alabama high school teacher who once claimed it was her constitutional right to have sex with two of her students has been sentenced to 10 years in state prison.

Carrie Cabri Witt, 47, will get to serve most of her sentence on probation, after spending 18 months behind bars and another 18 months in a community corrections program, local outlet WAAY reported.

Her sentencing on Thursday seemed to put an end to a controversial case that stretched back five years.

All right for 47 I suppose but I’d still take my chances with the girls taking shop class...

Female sex criminals get so much lighter sentences. It’s completely outrageous. Gross iniquity.

“I don’t think even Laz would take that bait.”

I don’t know about that...Laz’s standard are not very high - but hopefully we get the answer from the horse’s mouth.

Must have been a math teacher.
She obviously knows that 16 goes into 47 more times than the other way around.

Another happy ending.

Hopefully, prison will be hell for her.

Thankfully, she will never be able to teach again.

But Witt insisted that she was being prosecuted for a consensual relationship only because she worked at a school — as the age of consent in Alabama is 16.

She is correct.

But she is still in the wrong and was correctly prosecuted.

Teachers, regardless of age, should not have sex with students, regardless of age.

One would hope, but we ae only one Supreme Court decision away from it being completely legal.

It’s right there in amendment 28; Female teachers will have free choice of their students for sexual intercourse.

Take it to the SCOTIS!
