Amsterdam, NEW YORK

Munn sought psychological counseling even before her arrest, prosecutors said, explaining why they agreed to a light sentence. (We love the pity picture.)

Sept 13, 2007 - Elizabeth Munn, 32, an eighth grade social studies teacher at Broadalbin-Perth Middle School, was arrested and charged with third-degree rape for sex with a 15-year-old male student.

Munn is married and has two children.

The Leader-Herald has extensive coverage.

GUILTY PLEA & SENTENCING (Sorta) June 4, 2008 - Munn pleaded guilty to one count of third-degree rape. She was sentenced to six months in jail and 10 years’ post-release supervision, but she has already served two-thirds of the six-month sentence and is expected to be freed shortly with credit for good behavior.

The married mother of two will be classified as a Level 1 sex offender, the least dangerous type.

Munn has surrendered her teaching license and resigned from the school district as part of the agreement, according to the Albany Times-Union. [TT - Which makes it a "Bargain."]
