Texas Teacher Convicted of Having Sex with Students
All involved were legal adults. Three former students said they didn't see themselves as victims.
A former Texas high school teacher was convicted Friday after having sex with five 18-year-old students at her home.
It took the jury less than an hour to conclude that Brittni Nicole Colleps, 28, of Arlington, was guilty of 16 counts of having an inappropriate relationship between a student and teacher. The second-degree felony is punishable by two to 20 years in prison per count.
Sentencing was scheduled for Friday afternoon.
