School district photo

The Van Buren middle school teacher accused of giving a teenager a topless photo of herself was sentenced to five years of probation Tuesday, the Belleville View reports.

Thirty-seven-year-old Andrea Deanna Brennan, of Ypsilanti, was arrested July while drinking alcohol in a car with a 15-year-old student, the report said. Police found sexually explicit pictures on the teen's cell phone.

"As part of her plea deal, Brennan reportedly admitted to the judge that she created a picture of a significant portion of her breast and sent it to the teen," the media report said.

The View also reports Brennan, who was a teacher at North Middle School in the Van Buren Public School District, pleaded guilty to using a computer to commit a crime in exchange for the dismissal of one count of providing sexually explicit material and one count of furnishing a minor with alcohol.
