Missouri Teacher Sentenced for Sexual Misconduct with Student

Hailey Clifton-Carmack receives a four-year sentence, potentially reduced with completion of a sex offender program.

Hailey Clifton-Carmack, a former math teacher, pleaded guilty to having sexual contact with a 16-year-old student at Laquey High School.
The plea deal led to the dropping of more severe charges, including statutory rape and child endangerment.
Clifton-Carmack's sentence could be suspended after 90 days if she successfully completes a sex offender treatment program.
The student's father, Mark Creighton, has been charged with child endangerment for allegedly allowing the relationship to continue.
The case came to light after a student reported the relationship, supported by photographic evidence of injuries on the victim.
