Because the girl groomed him rather than the other way around according to the judge.

I think you're right actually, sorry.

Unless I'm reading it wrong he was cleared of the offences relating to her when she was 15.

He was found guilty of having sex with a child whilst in a position of trust. This offence, I believe, is only committed on people aged 16 and 17.

She was 15 when the offences occurred.

He was groomed? Is that what we're calling it now, when middle aged men are flattered by a school girl crush and then cheat on their wives and have sex with children they are in a position of power over?

I really don't understand this ruling. At all.

She was 16. Which is probably why he was spared prison.

That is awful. A teacher is in a position of trust and teens have crushes on teachers all the time. I feel the adult has forgotten who the adult was.

I feel desperately sorry for the teacher's wife. Having a miscarriage and your husband cheating on her with a fifteen year old in the same week is truly horrendous.

Absolutely unbelievable. Not only was he 44, but also a teacher, yet he's not to blame.
