Oz school mistress jailed for 5 years for sexually abusing boys
March 24th, 2011 - 3:19 pm ICT by ANIMelbourne, Mar 24 (ANI): A New South Wales woman will spend at least five years in jail for sexually abusing six boys at the school where she worked.
In sentencing Cassandra Leigh Johnson, the 42-year-old former house mistress in the NSW District Court, Judge Anthony Garling said the immature and naive boys were in “no position to deal with this predatory behaviour,” reports the Daily Telegraph.
The judge earlier this week lifted a non-publication order on naming Johnson who was found guilty in December of 21 sex offences involving boys aged 11 and 12.
The 2009 offences included 18 counts of sexual intercourse, involving fellatio and penile vaginal penetration.
Judge Garling said he did not take Johnson’s gender into account in sentencing, adding he would have sentenced a male offender to the same term.
He referred to a victim impact statement by the mother of one of the victims describing Johnson as a “wicked terrible woman’ who was being paid in her job as she was carrying out her sexual offending.
The judge set an eight-year maximum term. (ANI)
