| accused of attacking a state prison teacher in Florence, Ariz. |
FLORENCE, Ariz. (AP) — An Arizona inmate who pleaded guilty to raping a prison teacher apologized to the woman in court Monday before being sentenced to spend the rest of his life behind bars.
Jacob Harvey's apology came after the teacher's attorney read a lengthy statement from her describing how the January 2014 rape had traumatized her and led to what she called "unwanted psychological reactions, unwanted memories and psychological distress."
The 35-year-old woman sat with her parents in the courtroom while her attorney, Scott Zwillinger, read her words.
