(KLZA)-- A former middle school paraprofessional at Pawnee City Public Schools has been sentenced to 6 to 12 years in prison for sexually abusing two minors, at least one whom was a student.
The Lincoln Journal Star reports 36-year-old Kandice Johnson was handed the sentence this week in Pawnee County District Court .
Johnson will have to register as a sex offender for 25 years and will be subject to a possible civil commitment once she is released from prison.
She pleaded no contest last month to third-degree sexual abuse by a school employee and second-degree sexual assault.
Court documents indicate Johnson frequently allowed minors to drink alcohol at her home and was involved in other inappropriate behavior.
When Johnson was arrested, the school terminated her.
