Former Vancouver teacher gets probation, work crew for voyeurism

VANCOUVER Wash. (KPTV) - A former Vancouver teacher was sentenced Thursday to probation and community service after she pleaded guilty to voyeurism last month, according to court documents.

Former Mountain View High School teacher Shelley Leatherwood was given a year of probation and 30 days of work crew after she changed her plea in court to guilty on Aug. 9. As part of the plea deal, a charge of communication with a minor for immoral purposes was dropped.

Investigators of the case said a 17-year-old student reported a text with a nude photo to a staff member of the school district who then contacted police. Leatherwood said she ‘regretted sending the nude photo.’ As part of the plea deal, a charge of communication with a minor for immoral purposes was dropped.
