"Daniel Parham, 23, pleaded no contest to a single count of felony unlawful sexual intercourse, and prosecutors dropped two sex abuse charges as part of the deal, records show. He was formally sentenced to 12 days that he'd already served in jail as well as the probation and community service terms. Parham was not required to register as a sex offender, but he was ordered to undergo 16 hours of therapy to address respect and age issues with women, according to court records."
"The girl's family has filed a still-active lawsuit against the Emeryville Unified School District, alleging officials missed signs that Parham was violating school policy and that he groped multiple students. Parham's lawyer, Colin Cooper, called the plea deal a win for the defense. He said the girl accused Parham of rape several times, but text messages given to the defense disproved forcible sexual assault."
