Harding teacher sentenced to 18 months in prison for committing a sex crime

A Warren G. Harding teacher was sentenced this afternoon for a sex crime involving a student. 

Judge Rice sentenced 26-year-old Kline to 18 months in prison and he has to register as a tier three sex offender. 

Kline was found guilty of sexual battery earlier this month by a Trumbull County Jury.

Kline was indicted by a grand jury in April.
