MURRIETA (CBS) ―
A former Mead Valley middle school teacher will be sentenced July 14 after pleading guilty to molesting a student, 13, according to court records.
Raymond Ricardo Fields, 27, of Murrieta, pleaded guilty Tuesday to two felony counts of committing a lewd act on a child under the age of 14.
He faces 10 years in state prison.
Fields taught math at Tomas Rivera Middle School in Mead Valley and had developed a sexual relationship with the girl in October 2005, according to court records.
The molestations occurred over a six-month period at Fields' home.
He was placed on administrative leave following his arrest on May 3. He has since resigned.
