SEATTLE - The odyssey of Mary Kay Letourneau, which began years ago when she was a 34-year-old teacher who raped a sixth-grade student, has now evolved into "Hot for Teacher" night at a Pioneer Square bar.
But the bar's owner says the event is all in fun, and he hopes people take it in the right spirit.
Letourneau, who eventually served time for raping her former student then later married him after her release from prison, will be hosting the event Saturday at Fuel Sports Eats & Beats on Washington Street.
Letourneau's former student, Vili Fualaau, will be there, too. He'll be the DJ, spinning Top 40 and club classic hits all night.
Fuel's owner, Mike Morris, said he realizes having Letourneau host a "Hot Teacher" night could be touchy and might rub some people the wrong way.
But the way he figures it, "Mary's done her time. She's served her sentence. They're now married; they have kids together."
"It's turned into sort of a love story," he says. "I realize it had a sick twist at the beginning, but they're both adults now. They're both married by the state of Washington. So, it's just go and have fun on a Saturday night - and if people are looking to have some fun, just come check us out."
Morris said this is actually the third time that Letourneau and Fualaau have hosted a "Hot for Teachers" night at the nightclub. The first two events were low-key, and he said patrons really warmed up to the couple.

No joke Mary K. LeTourneau to host 'Hot for Teacher' night
According to KOMO/4, the former Florida teacher convicted of raping a sixth-grade student is hosting a Hot for Teacher night at Fuel Sports Eats & Beats downtown.
And that former student, now her husband, will be the DJ.
Check out the poster. This should be a talker.
(edit)
Since then, they've kept a fairly low profile - until now.

So, I guess for the horrific crime of raping a child to become a joke in some people's eyes, all you have to do is wait a few years. Then 'it's all good'.
I got it bad, got it bad, got it bad...
What’s next? Robert Chambers Preppy Rough Sex Night?
They say it’s all in good fun. Does this strike homeschooling advocates as amusing?
“I’ve got my pencil....”

Ha. Her skirt is too long.
Well it was statutory not the usual. And they are married now with two kids. But it is pretty darn tacky no matter what.

M.K. LeTourneau is bi-polar. This is a fact that I know directly from a family member, and have never seen mentioned in the media. It makes her wacko behavior a lot more pathetic. The media don’t mention it because it would interfere with their portrayal of M.K.L. as “daring” and titillating.

But what happens when she's 56 and he's 35???
Sweet, Sweet Waldo........
Very, very, tacky.
BTW her dad also fathered two kids with a very young woman, it cost him his California State Senate seat. The apple did not fall far from the tree.

Perhaps you have been in Seattle too long to remember that there IS a difference between male and female.
That truth applies to students, as well as adults.
Other than lawyers and those trying to channel Cotton Mather, to call a consensual sexual relationship between a 13 old male and a female over the age of majority (what that particular state defines it to be) is a stretch that only lawyers and over-active moralists could really push.
Consider the ill effects of too close proximity of too many Liberals - it causes IQ leakage.
