BARTOW, Fla. (AP) - A former Lakeland teacher will be sentenced in July after pleading guilty to 37 child sex charges with three teenage students.
The Lakeland Ledger reports (https://bit.ly/1BWYVbE) that 30-year-old Jennifer Christine Fichter of Davenport is expected to be sentenced July 2 by Circuit Judge Glenn Shelby.
Each charge of the unlawful sexual activity with a minor carries a maximum sentence of 15 years in prison.
Fichter initially was arrested in April 2014, on allegations she had carried on a sexual relationship with one of her students at the Central Florida Aerospace Academy in Lakeland, where she had taught English for three years.
Two more teenage victims - both 17-year-old male students of Fichter - came forward following news reports of her arrest.
Fichter also faces charges in Hillsborough County.
