victims, left the courtroom, someone attending the sentencing with Carpenter called the women "sluts."
"We were a little offended by the comment." Bergman said.
Carpenter received a sentence of eight month for the three charges of aggravated battery against the women and 14 months for distributing the Valium. He will spend a total of 14 months in prison because Fairchild said the penalties could be served at the same time.
Carpenter will be supervised for 24 months after he is released, and Fairchild also ordered Carpenter to pay $400 to repay the state for lab fees in the case.
Carpenter had no previous criminal record, defense attorney Thomas Bath Jr. said, and he was now convicted of four felonies. Bath also noted that his client had taken full responsibility for his actions.
Carpenter apologized for his actions in court, saying he was sincerely sorry for any harm he had caused.
"You will never see me back here again," he told Fairchild.
Carpenter was a paraprofessional for Lawrence Public Schools at the time of the drugging.
William Ricketts, a former employer at Southwest Junior High School, spoke on Carpenter's behalf at the sentencing. He said Carpenter was dependable and faithful to the students, staff and himself.
"Today we still miss him and our program is showing him being absent," he said.
Prosser said she did not know how Carpenter could serve as a role model based on his actions.
"Something that really impressed me and still really concerns me is that he worked around children," she said.
Prosser said after she was drugged Aug.29, she had to start the semester over and make up a lot of her schoolwork. She said the distress of that night would probably continue.
Bergman said she was glad she attended the sentencing because she couldn't remember what Carpenter looked like. Both women thought the sentencing helped bring closure to the experience.
Fairchild said the defense had 10 days from yesterday to appeal the ruling and scheduled a restitution hearing on May 2 at 11 a.m. At the restitution hearing, a judge will hear evidence and decide on an amount of money owed to the victims.

Alison DeTray, Overland Park senior, said Malott was not welcoming to students.
DeTray has a class in an organic chemistry lab.
"It's kind of nasty," she said.
"A new building or even remodeling and cleaning this one would help," she said.
She said the equipment was old and classrooms were crowded.
"Trying to find room and space for everyone very difficult. For us to have space someone has to leave," Johnston said.
It was difficult to accommodate the needs of everyone with three major departments in one building, said Bruce Johnston, lab education technician.
The departments are looking to several options to raise support for the new building. KU First and federal money could both be answers to their problems.
The only way to secure federal money would be to combine the undergraduate labs with some graduate-level research labs.
Landgrebe said securing large amounts of money from the state for the project was not currently an option.
"We're lucky to get enough money to maintain the buildings we have on campus," Landgrebe said.
