“This experience has drastically changed my life”

Victim

It happened after they kissed when he visited the room, police files say.

Frechette faced two sexual assault charges and two of risking injury to a child after her arrest in April 2017.

They were dropped in plea deal and she was jailed for 10 years for sexual contact with an under 16-year-old.

But she will serve only nine months after Superior Court Judge Philip Scarpellino suspended the rest of the sentence.

Frechette must register as a sex offender.

She will also be banned from teaching minors and contacting boys aged 13 to 18-years-old on her own.

The student’s mobile phone was said to have contained texts between him and Frechette mentioning oral sex and intercourse.

Police said Frechette told them she and the teen had been trying on costumes for a play she was producing when the guards caught them together.

The makeshift bed was there for comfort to let them sit down and discuss the production and not sexual activity, she said.

The boy said in a statement to the court: “The aftermath of what happened January 5, 2017, still haunts me to this day. 

“I thought I knew what I was doing but now that I’m older, I know that I did not, and I was taken advantage of.

“This experience has drastically changed my life.

“I walk around with a title on my head as ‘the kid who had sex with the teacher.’

“Before I even knew it, the whole school had all eyes on me.

“I laughed about it on the outside but inside I felt hurt and regret.

“I’ve been called several names, such as ‘dirty,’ ‘disgusting’ and several more.”
