Guilty!

(07/25/08 – Initial BBT Report)

Michelle Morano, 34, a former English teacher at West Essex Regional High School in North Caldwell, New Jersey has been sentenced for having sex with a 17-year-old special education student.

Morano pleaded guilty last month to twice having sex with the boy beginning in late 2006 .

Saying, “There is a difference between justice and vengeance”, Judge Donald J. Volkert Jr. sentenced Morano to three years’ probation rather than the one year in jail sought by the prosecutor.

The teaching certificates of Morano, who has been suspended without pay since her arrest in March of 2007, will be revoked.

Morano came to the attention of authorities while they were questioning the 17-year-old about an auto theft ring involving students at the school.

In addition to the prosecutor seeking a jail term for Morano, the victim’s mother also pleaded with the judge that he sentence Morano to jail time.
