FRANKLIN, Tenn. — A former teacher has been sentenced in Franklin on a plea bargain in a sex case.
The Circuit Court Clerk’s office confirmed Heather Lee Thorsby entered guilty pleas on Monday to three counts of statutory rape by an authority figure and 2 counts of sexual battery by an authority figure.
Thorsby was an art teacher at Independence High School and was charged with having sex with a student, who was a minor. She was suspended from her job in May 2007.

Note from Gag:
Heather looks a little bummed out in that photo, don't you think? Well, I guess I would be bummed too if I was photographed wearing purple lipstick.
