This freakazoid teacher should be locked up for YEARS! Not a month! Via CNN reports : A mother in Montana is outraged that a high school teacher who admitted sexually assaulting her 14-year-old daughter received only a month in prison, while her daughter took her own life. “I think this sentence is a joke, a travesty,” the mother, Auliea Hanlon, told CNN on Tuesday night, a day after the sentencing.”People will lose faith in our justice system. I have.” Hanlon said she was particularly upset that the sentencing judge, G. Todd Baugh, said her daughter “seemed older than her chronological age” and was “as much in control of the situation” as the teacher. Baugh later acknowledged to CNN that “that was not the best choice of words.” The case began in 2008 when the teen was a student at Billings Senior High School and Stacey Dean Rambold was a teacher. She was 14 at the time; he was 49. Hanlon claims Rambold’s “pre-sexual grooming” of her daughter led to the pair having sex. School officials learned of the relationship, and Rambold resigned. Later that year, authorities charged Rambold with three counts of sexual intercourse without consent. As the case wound its way through the legal system, the girl committed suicide. She was a few weeks shy of her 17th birthday. “As a result of the sexual assault and its aftermath, (the teen) experienced severe emotional distress, humiliation and embarrassment and fell into irreversible depression that tragically led to her taking her own life on February 6, 2010,” Hanlon said in a complaint filed against Rambold. Hanlon told CNN the relationship was to blame for her daughter’s death. “Well it definitely had something to do with it,” she said. “A teenager’s whole life is about school and their friends, and he turned everyone against her.” With the teen’s death, the prosecution entered into what is known as a “deferred prosecution agreement” with Rambold. At a hearing Monday, prosecutors asked the judge to send Rambold away for 20 years. The defense argued that Rambold has suffered enough. His lawyers said he lost his career and his marriage and has the “scarlet letter of the Internet” due to the publicity surrounding the case, the Billings Gazette reported. Baugh ruled that Rambold’s infractions weren’t serious enough. He sentenced Rambold to 15 years in prison. Then, he suspended all but 31 days of the sentence, according to the Yellowstone County District Court. In addition, the judge gave him credit for one day he spent in jail.
