Ex-MN Teacher Sentenced for Sex with Student
NEW ULM, Minn. (AP) - A former teacher at Sleepy Eye Public High School has been sentenced to six months in jail and 15 years probation after admitting to having a sexual relationship with a 16-year-old female student.
Brown County District Court Judge John Rodenberg sentenced 47-year-old Calvin Collum of New Ulm on Tuesday. Collum pleaded guilty in September to a single felony count of criminal sexual conduct in the third degree.
Court documents say the relationship began in early 2009, with Collum seducing the girl through classroom flattery and Facebook charm. The girl told investigators they had sex in Collum's house.
