Due to some crazy assed Texas laws, it is apparently a felony for a teacher to have sex
with a student, no matter what the age. I'll be she didn't even realize she was breaking
the law. Sure, she was unfaithful to her husband, but that's not a crime.

There must have been alot of alchol or drugs involved. I saw her pic.

The law is the same in Nevada. A 22-year old first year teacher was sentenced to 5 years and the rest of his life as a sex offender for having sex with a 20-year girl who was finishing up her senior year at the Clark County School District's adult ed school. She missed more than a year recovering from a car accident. He was a middle school math teacher and did not even she was still in school.

He was brutally beaten in prison in his 3rd year and was released early because the prison felt they could not ensure his safety as a rapist.

This doesn't even make sense ...
If she had been 30 and a student at that school, would the punishment be the same?!?

LOL. I see you point.

Maybe things were a little different back when I was 18. There were plenty of lovely young ladies who were more than willing. No need to go to teacher. Definitely different times back then (80s). Maybe there was some sex for grades plan in the works in this case. Hell..........I don't know.

Actually, in some states it is illegal to cheat on your spouse.

I think those are the same states that allow you to marry at 12....see Deano's related posts....

I wonder if "12", which is the age of consent in some countries, has to do with why so many Mexicans around here get busted
for pedophilia?

I totally don't get how it's even considered "rape". She wasn't a minor -- they were only 2 years apart!

This country is way too uptight about sex. Yes, it is ethically wrong for her to sleep with a student but come on, they are all consenting legal adults, this antiquated 1950s bullshit has to stop. These authorities seem to have forgotten about their high school days. I know I dreamed of nailing my 9th grade english teacher on more than one occasion.

If I'm not mistaken, I think it's a federal law concerning this.

she was GORGEOUS and she had one hell of a rack too! They had to be easily a large C or a small D, I paid more attention in her class than I did in all of my other classes combined.

There might be two, perhaps three that I may have thought were hot back when I was in school.
The rest of them look like dykes or are just fucking ugly.

TEACHERS SHOULD NEVER HAVE RELATIONSHIPS WITH STUDENTS. IT IS A VIOLATION OF TRUST AND YOUR AUTHORITY. IT IS WRONG REGARDLESS OF THE LOOKS OF THE TEACHER OR THE SEX OF THE TEACHER. IT GIVES THE REST OF US A BAD NAME AND WHEN WE ARE FALSELY ACCUSED WE ARE GUILTY EVEN IF FOUND INNOCENT.

Rant over.

[artist4perry]

Oh by the way guys......if they are teachers they know it is wrong. They drill it in our heads in college, and at school. So as far as the "I didn't know"....defense......I call BULLCRAP!

I get your drift, but I still don't understand how these laws can go against the grain as it pertains to legal age.

Because the students are there due to compulsory attendance laws. That gives the school additional authority over them and thus additional responsibility for keeping them safe. Unequal power equals no free consent.

I think I'm starting to understand. Would this apply to college students too? Compulsory, because they are required to be in high school, as an example?

I agree. But I also think being fired and never allowed to teach again is enough.

Ditto! And one more thing....it leads to accusations of favoritism. Giving favors for FAVORS, if you catch my drift. Not to mention people who would abuse it....and what is to keep the student from changing their mind and claiming it was not consensual? Seriously, people too stupid to see it as wrong should never teach. They make what used to be an honored profession a job that is quickly loosing its respectability. Some of us never would cross that line, and we work hard to do our jobs because we love teaching. I care too much about my students to violate them in any way.

Disagree away, but the courts are pretty clear on this one.

K-12 schools are different deals than colleges or jobs. You can quit a job or drop a university class. High school students can't just walk if they find teacher's behavior objectionable. Even if they are over 18.
