A teacher accused of having sex with two teenage pupils has ‘made attempts to garner sympathy’ throughout her trials, prosecutors have claimed in their closing speech.Today, May 15, jurors have heard legal directions from presiding judge Kate Cornell, who told them to ‘use common sense and knowledge of the world’, and to ‘put aside their feelings’ when it comes to judging the evidence in the case.
