A 34 year old music teacher at Webster Middle School in Chicago will spend the next
fourteen long years behind bars after being convicted for repeatedly having sex
with a thirteen year old boy.
34 year old Briana Travis admitted one charge of sexual assault after the
boy's parents discovered "alarming" texts on his phone.
The music teacher repeated had sexual intercourse with the boy.
A court heard the pair had an
"inappropriate sexual relationship" between June 1 and October 15,
2015.
Some of the sex acts took place at the school, said prosecutor
Jason Grindel.
She must serve at
least 85 per cent of her sentence before being eligible for parole. Travis must
also register as a sexual predator for the rest of her life.
Eleven similar charges
and one of aggravated sex abuse were dropped in a plea deal.
The student’s family
agreed to the sentence, said prosecutor Jason Grindel.
Police initially said
they were investigating an inappropriate relationship Travis may have had with
another student, but no charges were filed.
Travis could have been
jailed for up to 180 years if found guilty of all the charges against her.
She will get 349 days
credit for time served in Lake County jail, where she was held on $1 million
bail.
