Former Iowa Teaching Assistant Sentenced
A former Hampton-Dumont teaching assistant has been sentenced to 10 years probation for having sexual contact with a student. Tyler Radcliffe pleaded guilty in February to sexual exploitation by a school employee.

He was accused of having sexual contact with a 14-year-old student at his apartment during a noon break in 2007. A more serious charge of third-degree sexual abuse was dropped.

Radcliffe was sentenced Monday in Franklin County District Court. He received a suspended two-year prison sentence and ordered to register as a sex offender with the state.
