A former ‘teacher of the year’ has been sentenced to 270 days behind bars after pleading guilty to having sex with a 17-year-old student.
Michelle Lynn Johnson, a 46-year-old married mother-of-two from Anaheim, California, was also sentenced to five years of formal probation. She must register as a sex offender during this time.
It came after she pleaded guilty to three felony counts of oral copulation of a minor and two felony counts of unlawful sexual intercourse, according to a release from the Orange County District Attorney’s Office.
Johnson was arrested last June after the student’s parents contacted police, saying they were concerned about her relationship with the boy.
