FORT WORTH, Texas (KHOU) — The high school teacher accused of having sex with five male students was found guilty Friday on multiple counts of improper relations with a student.
In May, Brittni Colleps, 28, was charged after students at Kennedale High School began gossiping about incidents of consensual, group sex between her and several seniors.
Information got back to school authorities, who contacted police.
The jury returned the verdict in less than an hour on Friday, according to WFAA reporter Jonathan Betz. Colleps now faces up to 20 years in prison.
All the students involved were 18-year-old or older. Sex between people over 18 is legal in Texas, but the state has a special law that applies only to teachers.
Police say all the incidents took place at Colleps' Arlington home in April and May.
Colleps is a wife and mother of three. Her bond was revoked on the day of the verdict.
