Michelle Sulzicki pleaded guilty.

Bridgeport, Connecticut:

A former Stratford elementary school teacher is facing up to four years in prison after pleading guilty [Aug. 23] to having a 2-year sexual affair with a 13-year-old boy.
Dressed in a maroon dress, her blond hair pulled back in a ponytail, 29-year-old Michelle Sulzicki showed no emotion as she stood before Superior Court Judge Robert Devlin and pleaded guilty to second-degree sexual assault and risk of injury to a child. . . .
Devlin told Sulzicki he will impose a sentence of no more than four years and no less than six months when he sentences her Oct. 28. . . .
Sulzicki could have faced up to 30 years in prison if convicted of the charges. . . .
Sulzicki, who taught special education at the Chapel Street School in Stratford the past four years, was fired following her arrest. . . .
Police said Sulzicki began having sex with the boy when he was 12 and she was tutoring him at his Stratford home.
They said the boy told them that the first time he did not wear a condom Sulzicki “forced him to have sex with her,” the arrest warrant affidavit states.
Over the next two years the boy said he had sex with Sulzicki up to 20 times, the affidavit states. When confronted, police said Sulzicki admitted she had sex with the boy once when he was 12.
“She said she did not charge the family for tutoring him,” the affidavit adds.

Michelle Smith White pleaded guilty.

Durham, North Carolina:

A former Durham high school teacher pleaded guilty [Sept. 2] to sex charges involving a student.
Authorities said Michelle Smith White formed a friendship with a female student in 2012, when the girl was 15, and it later evolved into a sexual relationship. White was the dance teacher at Jordan High School at the time.
The girl’s father called White “a practiced predator,” noting that, despite repeated warnings from the family, school officials and police to leave the girl alone, White continued to text her and even got a tattoo with the girl’s name in it.
The family had to move the girl out of Durham following the incident so she could get psychiatric treatment, the father said.
White, 39, of Penrith Drive in Durham, pleaded guilty to sex act with a student, two counts of indecent liberties with student, indecent liberties with a child and second-degree kidnapping. She was sentenced to 45 months to 123 months in prison and was ordered to register as a sex offender. The judge also issued a permanent “no contact” order for White regarding the girl and her family.

Rebecca Eileen Diebolt pleaded guilty.

Placentia, California:

A former Orange County high school teacher who had a long affair with a 15-year-old student has been sentenced to six months in jail.
Rebecca Eileen Diebolt, 37, of Brea, was sentenced [Aug. 26] and ordered to register as a sex offender for life.
She pleaded guilty in January to sex acts with a minor.
Diebolt, a language arts teacher and swim and water polo coach at Valencia High School in Placentia, had a sexual relationship with the girl from 2004 to 2008, police said. The relationship carried on after the girl graduated from high school and went to college.
The victim reported the acts to police in 2014.
She told police that she and Diebolt had multiple sexual encounters that occurred in Diebolt’s classroom, as well as Diebolt’s home after school and on weekends.

Dionne Younce pleaded guilty.

St. Augustine, Florida:

A former Allen D. Nease High School teacher will spend a year in the St. Johns County jail for having sex with one of her students.
Dionne Marie Younce, 29, pleaded guilty to one count of unlawful sexual activity with a certain minor before Judge Michael Traynor [Sept. 8]. Traynor sentenced her to 364 days in jail with credit given for two days of time served. Upon her release Younce will be required to register as a sex offender and will spend five years on probation with sex offender conditions.
The St. Johns County School District suspended Younce in January — and formally fired her in February — after the Sheriff’s Office began investigating allegations that she had engaged in inappropriate communications with at least two students.
She was arrested Feb. 25 on two counts of unlawful sexual activity with certain minors.
While Younce’s attorney, Raymond Forbess, and the 7th Circuit State Attorney’s Office were not able to reach a plea agreement in the case, the state did drop one of the charges against Younce after negotiations and agreed to cap the amount of time to be served at 364 days.
Assistant State Attorney Chris Ferebee said he felt Younce’s crime did deserve some time behind bars.
Ferebee told Traynor that Younce’s contact with the student, who was a month shy of turning 18, was “certainly a consensual relationship.”
“The problem is she is a teacher and she is in charge of our children and she can not interact with students this way,” Ferebee said.
“This is a case … that warrants some incarceration,” he added.

Nicole Wilfinger pleaded guilty.

Las Vegas, Nevada:

Nicole Wilfinger, 37, spoke softly as she told a judge she’s prepared to plead guilty [Aug. 24] to two counts in the case against her.
One count of a teacher having sex with a student and another of statutory seduction.
“You wish to accept those negotiations,” Judge Cynthia Cruz asked. “Yes ma’am,” said Wilfinger.
Wilfinger was originally charged with nine counts stemming from a sexual relationship with a student police say began June of 2015.
Court records show Wilfinger was a teacher at Molasky Middle School and met the student when he was in seventh grade.

Shelly Jensen pleaded guilty.

Green Bay, Wisconsin:

A former West De Pere High School teacher’s aide faces time in prison for having a sexual relationship with a student.
Shelly L. Jensen, 50, pleaded guilty Monday in Brown County Circuit Court to one count of sexual assault of a student by school staff. Two additional counts of sexually assaulting a student and three counts of child enticement were dismissed as a result of Jensen’s plea.
Jensen was arrested in June after her ex-husband told police their adult daughter and 7-year-old son had found her on separate occasions in bed with a 17-year-old boy at her home in Lawrence.
Court documents state Jensen had worked with the boy as a math and English tutor. The tutoring sessions first began at the school and later moved to Jensen’s home.
The boy told police he and Jensen had sex three times over a three week period.
Jensen initially denied they had sex, telling police she invited the victim to her home because she wanted to get him out of a bad home situation, according to a criminal complaint.
Jensen’s bond will remain at $250,000. She is scheduled for sentencing on Nov. 11.
