Jamila Love Williams, a former algebra teacher at a Michigan
high school, will spend eight to 15 years in prison for her illicit
affairs with four teenage students
The mothers of her victims — who were between 15 and 16 years
old at the time of the s*x assaults — had bitter words for Williams,
36, at a court hearing in Grand Rapids, Mich. on Oct. 15.
“You are a sick, sadistic child molester. You don’t deserve
to be in society. You are a predator,” one mother said, according to
Michigan Live. “You befriended all of us mothers while in the back of
your head, you wanted [the boys] sexually.”
Williams was charged in June with three counts of
third-degree criminal s*xual conduct and one count of second-degree
criminal s*xual conduct. She pleaded no contest to all four charges in
September.
According to Grand Rapids police, Williams had s*x with the
victims in a variety of locations: in a car, at a Golden Corral
restaurant, in an alley, and in at least one boy’s home. One mother
claimed the teacher even had s*x with her son in a locked classroom at
Grand Rapids University Prep Academy, where Williams taught for six
years.
At her sentencing, Williams apologized for her behavior, but insisted that she is “not a predator.”
“I did not prey on these young men,” she said, according to Michigan Live.
It was initially thought that Williams only had affairs with
two students, but additional victims came forward during the police
investigation.
According to WZZM, Williams is herself a mother of four
children, ages 3 to 19, and is stepmother to a pair of 16-year-old
twins.
Now she’s not allowed to have unsupervised contact with children younger than 16, and must register as a s*x offender.
