CHULA VISTA (CBS 8/CNS) - A substitute teacher and ROTC instructor at Mar Vista High School who had sex with a 17-year-old female student will spend the next year in jail.
Martin Albert Gallegos, 48, pleaded guilty last month to statutory rape.
He also admitted an allegation that the victim, a senior, was not his spouse and was more than three years younger than him.
The defendant was arrested April 9, one day after a campus police officer got a report about the crime, which occurred about a month earlier, said sheriff's Lt. Dan Brislin.
Gallegos had worked for the Sweetwater Union High School District since last fall, filling in periodically for full-time teachers, according to district spokesman Manny Rubio.
Gallegos was sentenced to 365 days in jail and a three year probation.
