Teacher ‘Obsessed’ With Student She Sexually Assaulted Sentenced to 12 Years in Prison

Prosecutors said she sent thousands of texts, gave gifts and assaulted the teen over roughly six months before pleading guilty.

  • On Friday, August 28, a judge sentenced former New Jersey teacher Allison Havemann-Niedrach to 12 years in prison for sex crimes against a student, requiring she serve at least 85 percent of the term before parole eligibility.
  • While at Freehold Intermediate School, Havemann-Niedrach groomed and assaulted an eighth grade student who was 15, with abuse occurring over roughly six months starting in January 2024.
  • Prosecutors argued the teacher had been 'obsessed' with the student, as conduct involved thousands of text messages and gifts including a sex toy, prompting staff to suggest alerting law enforcement.
  • Superior Court Judge Jill told the defendant during sentencing, 'You ruined him,' while the victim described the abuse as 'like a nightmare,' believing for years the situation was his fault.
  • The sentence requires Havemann-Niedrach to register as a sex offender, forfeit her teaching license, and remain on supervised parole for life; Monmouth County Prosecutor Raymond emphasized commitment to holding sexual predators of children accountable.
