TAMPA, Fla. (CBS4) ―
Debra Lafave, a former Tampa teacher convicted of having sex with a 14-year-old student, has been released from house arrest. She has served over 2 ½ years of house arrest due to her affair.
Lafave, now 27, still faces seven years of less-restrictive probation as a result of her conviction.
According to her attorney, Lafave is doing well in treatment for a mental health problem, completed community service, and paid all her fines.
