Amy Hood was found guilty by a judge of four offences – including sexual assault and luring minors.

According to Dailystar, the mum-of-three sent hundreds of raunchy messages and photos in her undies to two 15-year-olds. Hood, 39, lost her home, husband, children and job over the scandal.

Fighting the charges, she said she was not criminally responsible due to her mental disorder.

Prosecutors will ask for Hood to be jailed when she is sentenced in July in Pictou, Nova Scotia, Canada.

They said she knew what she was doing and called her interactions with the boys an escape from an "unpleasant" domestic situation. Judge Del Atwood ruled that although Hood had bipolar disorder type one, he was not satisfied she was experiencing a mental disorder at the time of the offences.

He said: "Having reviewed the entirety of the record, there is nothing that would lead me to conclude anything other than that Ms Hood intended the natural consequences of her voluntary actions".

Hood was teaching at Thorburn Consolidated School in Thornburn, Canada, during the relationships with the teens between February and September 2013.

Prosecutor Bill Gorman said: "We will be seeking custody."

Hood's lawyer Joel Pink said: "She has surrendered her licence so she will not be a teacher again.

"She's lost her profession and she's had a tremendous amount of publicity - a lot of it unfair."
