On
Jan. 13, a judge in Houston, Texas, sentenced Alexandria Vera to 10
years in prison. Her crime? The 25-year-old teacher at Stovall Middle
School struck up a sexual relationship with a 13-year-old student —
having sex almost every day, she said, for nine months — but with the
parents' approval. She could be eligible for parole in five years.
Prosecutors alleged Vera groomed the child and his family, moving the teen and his father into her home and pretending she was dating the father. She also bought groceries for the boy's family and paid the phone bills. She even became pregnant by the boy. When child-protection workers closed in, she got an abortion. Unsurprisingly, the boy is now in foster care.
