A former Hemet High School teacher has pleaded guilty to having sex with one of her students.

Janel Ramirez, 31, pleaded guilty to two counts of oral copulation and one count of sexual intercourse with a 16-year-old male student.

According to court documents, Ramirez told the student at the end of his sophomore year that he looked like "Twilight" actor Taylor Lautner. The following year, she had sexual contact with him three times.

Ramirez, a married mother of two, was sentenced to five years probation and 120 days of house arrest. She resigned from her teaching position last week.
