Teacher jailed for sexually abusing autistic teen
EDMONTON -- A former city teacher found guilty of sexually abusing an autistic 14-year-old female student was sentenced to three months in jail on Monday.
Robert Hall, 62, was also placed on two years probation, following his release, after earlier being convicted of sexual assault, sexual interference and sexual exploitation of a mentally disabled person while in a position of trust.
