Last year, Jordan Powers was just another student from Mr. Hooker's class. Now she's his live-in girlfriend.

James Hooker -- the 41-year-old married father who left his wife and kids for his 18-year-old-student -- might be the worst teacher ever. Last week, he resigned from his job at Enochs High School in Modesto, California over the scandal that's shaken up a community and pit one mom on a crusade to save her daughter from a man she calls a "master manipulator."

Here’s another one.

That girl needs a father to go have a conversation with this former teacher that has the conversation end with the former teacher suddenly leaving town.

[TomT in NJ]

Agree, especially since he has a 17 year-old daughter.

Now he can pay for his daughter and girlfriend to go to college.

[Revolting cat!]

He, like, likes, her, like amazingly, oh, my god!

Where’s dad? This creep needs some “schoolin’”.

.."Still, Hooker claims he has no regrets. In an interview with Good Morning America, he shut down Tammie's accusations as a "pack of lies" and said of his new love, "we really do want to have a future together."

Until he finds another piece of chicken in the bucket, or until she realizes when she's 40 how much she missed out on her young life.

He's nothing but a selfish a$$. Not thinking of his family, his daughter, just what the brain between his legs wants.

Hmm.

I am 27 and the thought of dating anyone under the age of 22 makes me sick.

[Bringbackthedraft]

LOL, an 18 yr old? She’ll learn quick, so will he. Hope he has lots of $$$, he’s going to need it.

[Newtoidaho]

Talk about your sluts and nuts.

[redgolum]

What a sick freak.

[MrEdd]

The creep would have plenty of Freepers defending him, and blaming everything on the student and the student’s lack of moral character.
As we have seen for months going on here on Free Republic in a similar situation.

Truly America has lost its moral compass.

Moral absolutes ping.

Let me guess. Their song is “Into the Night” by Benny Mardones.

HOOKER??? Why are names always so appriorate.

[securityman]

Living the dream. It won’t work out in the long run.
