A former Volusia County teacher will be sentenced today on charges related to having sexual relationships with students. Arin Hankerd could spend decades in prison. The state offered Hankerd a plea deal in which he would serve 25 years behind bars plus 10 years of probation, but he turned that down. Now, he’s leaving his fate up to the judge. Hankerd was a teacher and football coach who was accused of having a sexual relationship with a 14-year-old. After he was first arrested for that, another student came forward and told police that she had engaged in sexula acts with Hankerd at his home.
