A former married high school teacher convicted of having sex with an underage student won’t face any jail time despite her victim’s mother claiming the educator’s “predatory actions” stripped the student of his dreams.
McKenna Kindred, 25, who taught at Central Valley High School in Spokane Valley, Wash., pleaded guilty Thursday to amended charges of second-degree sexual misconduct with a minor and communication with a minor for immoral purposes.
The teacher’s inappropriate relationship with the 17-year-old student began in June 2022, when the minor discovered Kindred’s Instagram account and the two began messaging each other, according to the Spokeman-Review.
Sometime in November of that year, Kindred and the student had sex inside her home while Kindred’s husband was on a hunting trip.
