Former Hamilton County high school teacher Casey McGrath pleaded guilty to a charge of aggravated statutory rape as part of a deal with prosecutors in court Thursday morning.
The plea agreement she signed said the judgment will be withheld from her record for four years, during which time she will be on the sex offender registry and on state supervised probation. She also agreed to no contact with the victim.
After the four-year period, if McGrath complies with all the conditions of the plea agreement, the case will be dismissed and McGrath’s record could be expunged.
