前体育教师因性虐待学生被判有罪

英国前体育教师布朗温·詹姆斯因对三名学生的性骚扰和性虐待罪名被判有罪1。现年30岁、来自威尔特郡奇普汉姆的詹姆斯承认了针对来自汉普郡和威尔特郡两所学校受害者的犯罪行为1。受害者包括一名16岁男生以及两名分别为13岁和14岁的女生1。

詹姆斯利用其教师身份进行了长期的有预谋的掠夺性行为1。检控官爱德华·卡尔弗在法庭上表示："她不仅表现得不专业且过于熟悉，还未能认识到任何边界，利用其职位与学生进行性活动"1。具体犯罪包括与儿童发生性活动、与儿童的性交流和制作儿童不雅照片1。詹姆斯曾通过Snapchat与16岁男生发送信息，将其代号为"number 8"，该男生在警察询问中称自己被"诱骗"1。检察官将其行为描述为"针对其照顾下的儿童的持续性掠夺行为模式"1。

詹姆斯职业生涯早期在西苏塞克斯私立西福德学院曾因向学生提供个人手机号码而受到警告1。法官已要求准备调查报告以评估量刑，正式判决将在今年晚些时候进行1。

Bronwen James, a 30-year-old physical education teacher from Chippenham, Wiltshire, has been found guilty of sexually abusing three students under her care at schools in Hampshire and Wiltshire 1. James exploited her position of trust to engage in a sustained pattern of predatory behavior targeting minors, including a 16-year-old boy and two girls aged 13 and 14 1.

The conviction encompasses three counts of sexual activity with a child in a position of trust 1. Prosecutors documented that James communicated with the teenage boy through Snapchat, referring to him by the code name "number 8," and engaged in sexual conduct with him 1. She also sexually abused the two younger girls 1. According to prosecutor Edward Calver, James "not only behaved unprofessionally and with inappropriate familiarity, but failed to recognize any boundaries and used her position to engage in sexual activity with pupils" 1. The boy told police he had been groomed by James 1. The offenses include sexual activity with children, sexual communication with minors, and the creation of indecent images of children 1.

Early in her teaching career at Westford Private School in West Sussex, James was cautioned for providing her personal mobile phone number to students 1. A sentencing hearing is scheduled for later this year, with the court having ordered the preparation of a presentence report to inform the judge's decision on the length of her custodial sentence 1.
