Brittany Zamora’s attorney, Belen Olmedo Guerra, suggested that the boy’s behavior may have been to blame for Zamora’s sex abuse conviction early this month in Arizona. After the trial’s conclusion, Guerra shockingly refused to admit her client’s guilt, and said: ‘I have represented Brittany Zamora for almost 16 months and I can tell you that she is not a monster. Brittany is not a predator and this was not between a young child and Brittany.’ ‘This was a teenager…She is not a danger to society.’ Guerra went on to say that the Timothy Dickey, the principal at Las Brisas Academy, where Zamora, 28, taught sixth grade, refused to remove the boy from Zamora’s class.
