White sentenced to additional 12 years for sex abuse
BLOOMINGTON – A McLean County judge this morning added another 12 years to the 48 that former grade school teacher Jon White has already received for bizarre games he played with students for his own sexual gratification.
White, 27, who most recently lived in Villa Grove with his parents, pleaded guilty in McLean County in February to two counts of aggravated criminal sexual abuse for acts that happened with two girls, then 6 and 7, while he was a teacher at Colene Hoose Elementary School in Normal between Oct. 1, 2004, and April 30, 2005.
