A 35-year-old teacher has been sentenced to jail after she was caught having sex with her 15-year-old student in a field.
Kandice Barber received her sentencing yesterday where the jury found her guilty of inciting a young child to engage in sexual behavior while she was working as a substitute supervisor in a school.
The married teacher made the news in the past few months when rumors broke out about how the teacher groomed her male student into performing the sexual act. The case was pending in the courts for some time now, with many hoping to see justice served. Now, the latest verdict announced how the teacher would be serving a period of more than 6 years in jail.
The courtroom found Kandice Barber guilty of the sexual act that reportedly took place in January, following a retrial for the incident. Now, she will live a life behind bars for her horrifying and beyond despicable behavior.
Throughout the case’s trial, Amersham’s law courts listened to the 35-year-old woman and how she reportedly told her student that she would make sure that he was brought down with her. The teacher made threatening calls to the student, to prevent him from informing others about the pair’s relationship.
The teacher was also guilty of sending the student countless pictures where she posed away shamelessly in a topless attire. This includes live videos of her masturbating too.
Recently, Kandice who hails from the area of Wendover appeared in Buckinghamshire’s Aylesbury court, where she was informed of her jail sentence.
The prosecutor for the case summarized the victim’s statements where he reportedly talked about how he faced great anxiety as well as stress relating to the matter.
And that included the pressure of the trial and court appearances. The student also mentioned how his GCSE results may have been impacted as a result of the chaos and pressure surrounding this case.
The student’s statement ended when he spoke about how his mentor helped him make all the wrong decisions, instead of helping him make the right ones.
