‘Predator’ married teacher jailed for 15 YEARS for cheating on husband with THREE pupils
A "PREDATOR" teacher who cheated on her husband with THREE pupils has been jailed.
Teacher Ashley Pruitt admitted romping with two pupils and sending nude selfies to a third
Ashley Pruitt, 30, admitted romping with two of them and sending nude selfies to the third.
Another sex act charge was dismissed as part of a plea deal.
The busty English and PE tutor was arrested after turning herself in to cops in November 2014.
The lads were 16 to 18-year-old athletes who met Pruitt when she taught them at Locust Fork High School, Alabama, US.
The blonde was accused of sending pictures of her vagina and breasts to "Victim 1" via Snapchat in October 2014.
She had multiple conversations with him and said she wanted to take his virginity, said court papers.

Pruitt was said to have had oral sex in a car with "Victim 2" the same month. She also used Snapchat to set up the meeting and had sexually explicit chats with him, according to an affidavit.
This teacher's actions make all teachers look bad
From August through September Pruitt had sexual contact with "Victim 3," which included "kissing" and "making out" in a car.
Snapchat was also used to send him raunchy messages, said court records.

Pruitt was sentenced to 15 years in jail after pleading guilty to two counts of a sex act or deviant sexual intercourse with a pupil and two counts of distributing porn to a minor.
But she will serve only one year behind bars and another two years on house arrest on the sex charges. And Pruitt, who has a young son, will serve only half of a one year term on the porn charges.
She is currently out on bail pending an appeal.
Prosecutor Pamela Casey said: "I'm pleased we were able to resolve this case before trial.

"These three boys have already been subjected to enough public scrutiny as a result of Mrs Pruitt's actions.
”It's not easy for victims of sexual predators to appear at trial to discuss such personal and private matters with 12 jurors and a room full of spectators."
She added: "Once again, I would like to remind parents of the dangers of social media and smartphones.
"This is just one more example of an adult, this time a teacher, using social media to sexually exploit a child. Sadly, this teacher's actions make all teachers look bad. That shouldn't be the case. Blount County has so many great teachers."
