High school teacher arrested for threatening to fail her students if they don’t have sex with her, reportedly sentenced to 40 years in prison

A teacher of Colombian origin was arrested last year for sending suggestive photos to her students and threatening to make them fail if they refused to have sex with her.

The woman, identified simply as Yokasta M. was arrested after a father of one of the students saw photos of the teacher on his son’s phone and reported to the relevant authorities.



This was in 2016. Soon after she was exposed, her husband filed for divorce.

The case was highly sensational last year and made news headlines. It was reported that the teacher selected the boys, all less than 17 years of age, based on their appearance.

An investigation has been ongoing since and a recent report from Channel 4 of Nicaragua says she has been sentenced to 40 years in prison. A lot of people are questioning the sentence, saying 40 years is too long a time for the crime she committed. (MTONews/LIB)
