FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) - A former North Texas suburban high school teacher has been sentenced to five years in prison for having sex with five 18-year-old students at her home.
A Tarrant County jury decided on the sentence Friday for Brittni Nicole Colleps.
The decision came hours after Colleps was convicted of 16 counts of having an inappropriate relationship between a student and teacher. She could have received up to 20 years in prison for each count.
The 28-year-old former Kennedale High School English teacher had sex with the students at her Arlington home over two months.
Jurors heard graphic testimony from the involved students during the trial and were shown cellphone video of one encounter involving multiple students.
Prosecutors rested their case Thursday, and the defense didn't call any witnesses.
