SEA school principal in Sweden has received a harsher sentence after being convicted of sexual abuse against a student. The Svea Court of Appeal increased his prison term from five years to five years and nine months, citing manipulative behavior toward the student before the relationship began and the use of the student’s dependency to engage in sexual activities. The prosecution had requested a six-year sentence, while the defendant sought acquittal and exemption from compensation. The court reduced the sentence slightly due to the principal’s dismissal from his position as a result of the crimes. The victim will still receive a compensation payment of 660,000 Swedish kronor.
