SANFORD - A former middle school teacher accused of having sex with a 14-year-old student in her car pleaded no contest to a reduced charge today and was sentenced to five years probation.
Jennifer Tarkenton, who has since gotten married and goes by Jennifer Nero, was arrested Nov. 30, shortly after she and the student were discovered in her Ford Focus on a deserted stretch of road near Lake Mary.
The boy told deputies that he and his teacher had just had sex. He was still wearing a condom, according to court records.
Tarkenton also admitted that they had just had sex.
She was charged with two counts of lewd and lascivious battery.
Today, after plea negotiations, she pleaded no contest to one count of felony battery. That means she will not have a record as a sex offender.
