Former area school teacher sentenced for sexual assault of student

A pair of sentencings took place this week in Ohio County regarding separate sexual misconduct casings. It has been nearly a year since former Wheeling Park High School teacher Micah Farmer pleaded guilty to the sexual assault of a student. On Tuesday, he was sentenced to 2-to-10 years behind bars. Farmer's defense began by asking for an alternative sentencing of home confinement, but First Judicial Circuit Court Judge Michael Olejasz did not agree, condemning Farmer to a minimum of 1 year and no more than 5 years in prison on both counts that will be served consecutively. It was a decision that Ohio County Prosecutor Shawn Turak says she was pleased with. "It took a while to get the sentencing due to matters beyond everyone's control. As Judge Olejasz said, the default position in this courtroom for a sex crime is prison, and that's exactly what Micah Farmer deserves. The state believes, and the court agreed he's a predator and he's a risk to the public," Turak said.
