MERIDIAN - A Meridian teacher is behind bars, and police say she had inappropriate contact with one of her students.

The teacher, Ashley Jo Beach, 37, has been arrested on a felony charge of lewd conduct with a child under the age of 16

Officers say they caught Beach in the bushes with a 13-year-old boy Thursday night in Meridian. It started with a call from neighbors in the area of Cherry Lane and Vineyards - who say they saw something suspicious about 9:30 p.m.

When officers arrived, they say Beach and the boy were between a fence and some bushes, laying down - partially concealed from view. They questioned Beach and the child, and said there were inconsistencies in their stories.

Detectives started investigating and say they found that Beach had been involved in a sexual relationship with the boy since April. They say the boy is a former student.

The Meridian Middle School website lists Beach as a math and science teacher.

Beach is being held in the Ada County Jail and was booked in yesterday afternoon. She is set to be arraigned today at 1:30 p.m.

Here's another naughty teacher story. This one is local to where I live, and I even have a tangential personal connection to the school in question.

I have a pretty good idea of how the "FR jury" will vote on this one.

I understand that if you have an erection longer than four hours you should call a doctor. How did that boy get an erection?

People don't "lay" - people "lie": they "lie" in bushes with students, and they "lie" about healthcare before a Joint Session of Congress. But they only "lay" things down. They don't "lay" in bushes with students. Good grief. "Journalism" is a mess in all respect.

What is this with Female Teachers and underage students? Do they have a bet, dare or something going around?? Anyone know?

[frithguild]

Wubber blubber knees of rubber!

[airborne]

Teaching is a logical vocation for a sexual preadtor.

[ryan71]

Don’t kids today have any freaking standards?

[TaMoDee]

I thought that Helen’s pic would show up. One look at “teach” and that’ll cure that nasty olde 4 hr problem.
Helen has her back up right there.

What were they laying, carpet?

Someone needs to learn the difference between a transitive verb and an intransitive.

"You lay!"

[LeftiesBinWhinin]

Someone has to say it:

“I’d hit it.....”

[Charles Henrickson]

Well now let's see - if it were male teachers and underage female students, and I were a member of NOW, I would wag my finger and teach you that rape is not about sex, but power. And that such men were frustrated, angry, vindictive, women-haters who were abusing their authority in pathetic expressions of male domination and abuse, and should be given life sentences, if not outright execution.

But since we're actually talking about female teachers, it's love.

People don't "lay" - people "lie": they "lie" in bushes with students, and they "lie" about healthcare before a Joint Session of Congress. But they only "lay" things down.

I think the objective here was "laid", rather than "lied"

I was waiting for Laz to say that.

[B-Chan]

“Laying”? What was she “laying”, an egg?

Why is it that so many professional journalists can’t use the freaking English language correctly?

[SoldierDad]

However, they could get laid!!

[SJSAMPLE]

You don’t see a lot of women giving it up to sixteen year-olds, so ... YES. In the eyes of a young man, YES.

[SAJ]

Absolutely. Bloody illiterate.

(and thanks for saving me the trouble of posting this, m'FRiend!)

Might've been interesting if it had read, ''Police say they caught teacher getting laid lieing in bushes with student''. Or, would that be redundant?...ah, well...

[Charles Henrickson]

they caught Beach in the bushes with a 13-year-old boy

Boy: "Beach set me up!"

[Texas resident]

Bush’s fault.

LOL! Yes, another of the many uses of the term "lay."

[csmusaret]

He woke up with it.

"Are you a chicken?"

"Nope I'm an egg."

"Where did you come from?"

"I was laid."

"Do all people get laid?"

"Nope. Some are chicken."

[csvset]

13? WTH?

[SoldierDad]

Perhaps with a sledge hammer.

[Cletus.D.Yokel]

37? Looks like 57.

Guilty

[Doomonyou]

Unnngh.

Guilty!

[csvset]

Ashley Jo the Idaho ho?

[MNlurker]

Call for delay until a picture under nicer circumstances can be found, but the defense has got some serious work to do!

[GeronL]

Dude, Wolf Blitzer was in negative numbers on Jeopardy EZ Edition! “Journalists” are idiots.

[SampleMan]

I don't get this photo capture. Who's beach is she?

[Artemis Webb]

"What is this with Female Teachers and underage students? Do they have a bet, dare or something going around?? Anyone know?"

I don't know...but I have a theory:
I believe it has a great deal to do with feminism. Women have been taught, especially since the 70's that moral standards are old school. That if a woman wants something she should have it without guilt. Men know from years of prosecution that "15 will get you 20". I'm not saying male teachers never have relationships with female students, that would be naive. But for some women in this sexually permissive society they simply cannot get around the idea that there has to be limits to their desires.

[envisio]

Ahh what the hell, I’d hit it.

[50mm]

“I’d hit it.....”

You've been celibate for a while, haven't you?
