Fresno, CALIFORNIA

Updated to include sentencing on the weapon possession charges.

Feb 21, 2007 - Donna Hubbard, 46, a health teacher at Duncan Polytechnic School, pleaded no contest to battery and possessing an assault weapon.

She and her husband were arrested last year after authorities said they found several rifles, Ku Klux Klan clothing and photographs of cross burnings at their home following an event called "Aryan Unity Fest '06" held over Memorial Day weekend.

She was arrested on weapons charges at school, and was later accused of attacking a Jewish woman in an Oakhurst parking lot in 2005. The "hate crime" charge and enhancements that alleged she was associated with a criminal gang - the KKK - were dropped in the plea agreement. She said she made the plea deal to avoid losing her teaching credential.

Her husband remained in custody in lieu of $100,000 bail because he allegedly violated his probation. Sentencing will be March 20. She has been on paid administrative leave since her arrest.

We nearly forgot that the judge previously suspended the battery sentencing for a year on the condition that the defendant undergo anger management counseling.
