TEACHER CHARGED IN SCHOOL SEX SCANDAL TO BE SENTENCED TODAY

ALBANY (NY)
Newswatch 50

A former Catholic school English teacher arrested for having sex with a 16-year-old student will be sentenced today in Albany.

Under a plea deal, 42-year-old Sandra Beth Geisel will be sentenced to 6 months in jail. She'll also have to register as a sex offender and will be on probation for 10 years.

The mother of 4 was fired from her teaching job at Christian Brothers Academy in Albany in June, after police caught her with a 17-year-old student.

During the investigation, a 16-year-old boy came forward and said he had sexual intercourse with Geisel on 2 occasions, leading to the charges against her.
