Long island teacher rearrested for writing letters to male student

Long Island teacher's obsession with her former student has gotten her busted for a third time.
Heather Kennedy, 26, was sentenced on Friday to six months time served for bedding the 16-year-old boy last year - once having sex in his car in the parking lot at Wantagh High School, where she was his math teacher.
Early Saturday cops swooped in and rearrested Kennedy at her Massapequa home, accusing her of writing the teen from jail, a violation of an order of protection taken out against her.
Kennedy was arraigned Saturday and released on $15,000 bail. She now faces an additional year behind bars.
"This defendant disgraced not only her school, but her community and the entire teaching profession," said Nassau County Assistant District Attorney Jaime Johnson.
Kennedy sent three handwritten letters to the boy from August to December, prosecutors said.
Kennedy's lawyer, Steven Zimmerman, argued that authorities became aware of the letters months ago, but didn't act on them until Saturday.
Nassau County cops said they didn't learn of the letters until Friday night and made the arrest several hours later.
The former teacher, who is still on probation for the trysts, is no longer hot for student, Zimmerman said.
"Heather's taken responsibility for her actions," he said. "She said that the romance isn't a viable situation and she's moved on."
Kennedy was first arrested in March of last year after her young lover confessed that the two had had sex in the car. more
