Former Destrehan High School teacher Shelley Dufresne pleaded guilty to obscenity Thursday (April 9), admitting in court that she had sex with a 16-year-old student. The plea lets her and the student avoid a public trial and allows her to avoid a three-year prison sentence.
She must spend 90 days at an inpatient mental health facility, serve three years of active probation and pay a $1,000 fine. If she fails to enter the court-approved mental health facility by the end of August, she must report to the St. Charles Parish jail Sept. 1 for a 90-day sentence, Judge Anne Simon said during the plea hearing at the Hahnville courthouse.
Dufresne also agreed to surrender her teaching license. With the parents of her former student sitting in the front row of the courtroom, Dufresne admitted to having "consensual sexual intercourse with a juvenile," as detailed in the carnal knowledge law.
"Is it true?" Simon asked Dufresne. "Yes, ma'am," she replied.
Dufresne left the courthouse at 11:35 a.m., with her mother. She and her attorney, Deanne Williams, would not comment to a reporter.
The student's parents, his mother appearing angry as she stared at Dufresne, also would not speak with reporters. They were accompanied by an attorney who sat with them during the hearing.
Dufresne, a 32-year-old Montz resident who is married and has three children, was one of two Destrehan High teachers arrested last fall on charges of having sex with the same student. Their arrests touched off a flurry of gossip and speculation in Destrehan and online, particularly over the notion of women in authority positions seducing -- or molesting -- an under-aged boy, and contributed to Louisiana's reputation for inappropriate teacher-student relationships.
Her plea came during a status hearing in 29th Judicial District Court. It was accepted by Simon, the retired New

“All women have mental problems.”
U sound like my 25 year old grandson. lol
I'm sorry, what?
The Kenner Police Department report says the crime began at 9 p.m. and ended at 6 a.m.
Could you repeat that?
Yeah, I know. I just like this comment. I keep dwelling on it.
She’s perfect....
She’s been given a BJ Clinton Post-POTUS perpetual pardon!
By the time I hit 16 I was going blind from all the girls I dated.
They couldn’t get enough me, I couldn’t get enough of them.
I was a very bad boy and now that my shoulder is better I’m going all out caveman again...
More likely he rubbed them raw.
At 16 yer pretty much The Man of Steel and the only thing stopping you is death, which isn’t possible, because you’re Superman...
She slept with their sons and they onlytold their dad about it, who simply smiled, patted em on the head and said “Good Boy and don’t tell no one’s! Ahem, or I’ll kick your ass myself. Now go do that again!”
My wife was asking my son about the girl’s at his college (boys are far in the minority there) and if he has been out with anyone.
“Mom. The odds are good. But the goods are odd.”
Sadly though, he and my daughters (HS) say how you can’t just go out with someone to do something without being considered “a couple”. And if they did something with a different boy in the course of a week they would be considered sluts.
My mom told them they needed to “play the field”. Mom was always going with different guys just to meet them, have fun, etc. Nothing was ever serious.
Police is stoopit.
There was no crime...
Kid should have recieved a community award for his quests
That could be. I was thinking maybe they had taken a little dip themselves.
That is the only conclusion one can draw from these situations.
ping
Not guilty and not guilty.
And I'm sure his phone was full of their pics.
Yes, there is a double-standard.
Whatever anyone thinks about this sort of case, I always wonder how it was found out. Was the kid bragging and it went around to authorities? Did someone see the kid enter the apartment with the two teachers?
This sort of thing has happened before, over many years, and I never knew of any case to be found out and the guys kept their mouths shut except maybe their closest friend or two.
>> These girls gave him a gift and this is how repays them? <<
He probably was bragging about it from one end of the Parish to the other. I’ll bet my bottom dollar that he would have preferred to keep the activity going!
...AT THE SAME TIME!!!!
Let’s see: 9pm to 6 am......16 year old kid....hot teacher.....hhmmmmmmm I’m guessin’ 6 squirts minimum.
That's the part that.... errrr... blows me away.
