A 33-year-old former teacher will spend more than a decade in federal prison for engaging in sexual relations with a minor between 20 to 30 times.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Arkansas announced May 15 that a judge sentenced Heather Hare to 13 years for transporting a minor across state lines for the purpose of unlawful sexual activity, as well as a lifetime of supervised release. Hare pleaded guilty to the charge in January.
According to prosecutors, Hare, who taught family consumer science classes at Bryant High School, met the minor victim when he was a senior, and they began one-on-one counseling sessions. Hare reportedly gave the minor her personal number, and she communicated with him via Instagram and Snapchat.
According to the attorney’s office, Hare told the minor she “had a dream of them having sex,” and she gave him her address. They engaged in sexual relations around 20 to 30 times during the 2021-2022 school year. Hare and the minor reportedly had sex at the defendant’s home, in her car, and even in her classroom and the high school’s parking lots.
In April 2022, prosecutors said Hare had sex with the minor while chaperoning a field trip to Washington, D.C., as part of her classes.
The victim was reportedly the only male on the field trip, which included several students.
