Kaitlyn Hunt, the Florida teenager who
had a sexual relationship with an underage female classmate, walked
out of prison on Friday.
Hunt spent 4 months in jail after she
pleaded no contest to two felony charges in connection with the
relationship.
She walked out of the Indian River
County jail on Friday morning as friends and family cheered on the
19-year-old Hunt.
Hunt was arrested in February following
her 18th birthday over having a relationship with a female
student 3 years younger than herself while both attended Sebastian
River High School. After posting bail, she was ordered to have no
contact with the alleged victim.
In mid-August, prosecutors accused her
of sending thousands of text messages to the victim, including some
naked, a violation of the court's no-contact order.
In previous remarks, Hunt claimed that
she had been set up.
“Yeah, I do regret it, because, you
know, I trusted her as not only my friend but my girlfriend, too,”
Hunt said. “And I felt like, you know, I was just set up in
multiple ways. And I got hurt by her. I care about her as a person,
you know, 'cause it's someone I dated for a long time. But I don't
love her the way I did before.”
Hunt will remain on house arrest for
the next two years but won't have to register as a sex offender.
