Former Fairfield Teacher Agrees to Plea Bargain in Sexual Assault Case

The teacher was accused of having sex with a female student 17 times in 2013.

One day after a judge refused to dismiss the case and ruled that former Fairfield Ludlowe teacher Glenn Mishuck, 49, must stand trial for allegations that he had a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old female student, a plea bargain was reached.

Daniel Tepfer of the Connecticut Post reports Mishuck agreed to plead guilty to four counts of second-degree sexual assault and faces up to three and a half years in prison.

Mishuck had been charged with 17 counts of second-degree sexual assault and his lawyer argued Wednesday that the case should be thrown out because the alleged relationship took place during the summer when he wasn’t the girl’s teacher.
