Michel, 44, was a long-time science teacher at Rehobeth High School. He was sentenced to 36 years in prison Wednesday by Circuit Judge Butch Binford. Michel will serve three eight-year sentences for having sex with a student and four three-year sentences for the possession of porn material convictions. All sentences will run consecutively, meaning the prison term for each count will not begin until the expiration of the previous count. Binford also denied any probation request and assessed fines and penalties totaling around $6,000.

“This is the most horrible thing anybody could possibly go through,” the mother said, adding that her children still attend school at Rehobeth. “They will suffer daily.”
