Burbank, WASHINGTON

Mar 23, 2007 - Alfredo Castillo, 80, a teacher's aide at Columbia Middle School, was sentenced to 15-month sentenced for fondling a female student during the 2004-2005 school year. He also will be placed on three to four years of community custody when he's released.

She told officials the abuse occurred frequently enough that she started wearing sweatshirts to make it more difficult for Castillo to touch her.

The mother of the developmentally delayed girl who was 13-years-old at the time, reacted to the sentence. ``I pity him. My daughter isn't the damaged one - he is.''
