Edmonton teacher admitted to sex acts with teen girls
The Crown is seeking up to nine years in prison for a former Edmonton Catholic junior high school drama teacher who had a sexual relationship with two female students.
Piotr Zaloba, 29, earlier pleaded guilty to two counts of sexual interference, one count of sexual counselling, four counts of luring a child and three counts relating to possessing, transmitting and publishing child pornography.
On Monday, Crown prosecutor Diane Hollinshead argued for a sentence of between eight and nine years for Zaloba.
She noted it is a major breach of trust for a teacher to get involved sexually with a student and said Zaloba’s “predatory nature” and the way he groomed the girls, aged 13 and 15, in texts and online chats were aggravating.
