Lindsey Banta Jarvis pleaded guilty to rape and sodomy of a student younger than 16 on Wednesday.

Kentucky cops began investigating when officers found Jarvis with the teen in a car in the early hours in August 2016.

It is claimed the boy admitted to officers he had sneaked out of his home to meet the married teacher.

According to court documents, Jarvis began texting the boy then aged 15 and it quickly developed into a sexual relationship.

It is reported the pair would arrange meetings in local parks to avoid being spotted.

Court records state they had sex in Jarvis’ home in Lexington on three occasions.

The boy was reportedly able to give police details of the interior of her home, including the location of the entrance, stairs, bedroom and master bathroom, a police affidavit said.

When Jarvis appeared in court last year, her husband Andrew, who she has been married to for four years, was sitting alongside holding her hand.

On Wednesday, Jarvis admitted her guilt at Woodford Circuit Court and is facing a recommended 18-month prison sentence.

The teacher began the relationship with the teen when working in Woodford County.

She started a new job at Veterans Park Elementary in Lexington in August 2016 and continued meeting the teenager for sex.

It emerged she resigned from her job in Lexington on the day the allegations emerged.

Another criminal case against Jarvis is pending in Fayette County, where she is charged with third-degree rape, a felony punishable by one to five years in prison.

A status hearing in that case is scheduled for Friday before Fayette Circuit Judge Pamela Goodwine.

She has been ordered to begin home incarceration until her sentencing on December 5.
