Allenna Ward Sentenced to 6 Years in Prison For Sex With Teens

Atlanta, GA 2/19/2008 08:56 PM GMT (FINDITT)

Former Bell Street Middle School teacher Allenna Ward was sentenced to prison on Tuesday for having sex with 5 teenage boys, some of the students at her school. The 24-year-old pleaded guilty in September to three counts of second degree criminal sexual conduct with a minor and three lewd acts on a minor.

Ward was sentenced to 15 years in prison to each lewd act. She was sentenced to 6 years for each count of criminal sexual conduct. Her time for each lewd act was suspended to 6 years. Ward?s sentences will run concurrently.

?I apologize from the depths of my heart,? Ward said.

Police began investigating Ward last year when a note was found that the South Carolina teacher sent to one of the boys. Authorities say Ward met the teens, all 14 and 15 year olds, at the school, at a motel, a park and behind a restaurant.

If this was a Man, it would be rape of each student and 20 years in jail. Interesting double standard. How much should you get for raping 5 young girls?

Going to have to agree with you on this one. I wonder how young these boys would have had to have been for a rape instead of criminal sexual conduct conviction because it seems that 11-13 year old boys were too young for it to be considered rape.

No matter how much some people want to argue about it men and women are not exactly the same. For some things a double standard doesn't seem wrong.
