SC teacher resigns after nude pic from her phone spread throughout school

UNION, S.C. (WSPA) — Leigh Anne Arthur, a teacher at the Union County Career & Technology Center has resigned after a nude photo of her was spread through the school, says the district’s interim superintendent.

The district said Arthur had nude photos of herself on her phone and a student took her phone while she was out of the room. The student then took photos of the nude images.

The student then shared the photo throughout the school. The district became of aware of the incident last Monday and she resigned on Tuesday, according to the district. Arthur reached out to WSPA after seeing the story and told her side of the story.

She said the week of Valentine’s Day, she had some pictures in a gallery on her cell phone that were intended for her husband. She said she left her cell phone on her desk to go out and be a hall monitor between classes.

In that time, a five minute span, a student took pictures of her phone from his phone and shared them “with anyone in class who wanted them”.

She said the kid then said at the end of class, “your day of reckoning is coming.” Later, she was told what had happened and checked with the student’s parents who she said were 100 percent on her side.

The student went to principal and admitted to taking the photos. Two witnesses also went to the principal. The principal asked for her resignation the next Tuesday, Arthur said.

The district told her there was no policy about “inappropriate material on her cell phone” but they were firing her for that reason. Arthur said she was also in trouble for “making her phone easily accessible.” She made a police report and the students phone is now in possession of Union County Sheriff’s Office.

Don’t act like the bully boss when you lost the argument. It won’t help you win. Just go away quietly.

It’s not perverted to have naked selfies for your mate. Stupid, but not perverted IMO.

I have a password on my phone.

But if I get a call or a text that compels me to go to the next office, or outside or something, I might hang up and lay my phone down before heading to the door.

Then there is a minute or so (depending on my settings) before the phone shuts down and locks itself again.

That might have happened to the teach. She gets a message, puts phone on desk and exits; the rotten little bastard kid jumps up and goes to her pictures before the phone closes up.

How do you [know] she did not leave her phone out to be seen by students.

So, you assert she did this purposefully and demand others prove you wrong. That is called the "burden of proof" fallacy. YOU have to provide evidence of correctness of your assertion. So far, you have only repeated your assertion, and admitted it is your opinion.

Yes, she should have been much more careful with such pictures once she took them. But, your assertion that what is easily explained by carelessness MUST be intentional is ridiculous, absent any further evidence showing intention.

Here is a YouTube news story that includes an interview with the teacher.

Interesting that she referred to the photos as “inappropriate.”

We agree that she was careless in making it possible to students to see her sexy teacher pictures. Pedos have accidents like that all the time. Whether you like it or not.

It’s probably on the narcissistic side of the scale. Unfortunately she “accidently” shared them with her students.

Teachers are super protective of their private belongings and private lives at school. Kids steal from them. Kids take personal information about them to use against them.

3. Get a good lawyer and sue everybody.

...

Pay a lot of money to the lawyer and get nothing in return.

Was it on the desk or IN the desk?

Yes, we agree she was careless.

Pedophiles arrange such accidents habitually, I would imagine.

To then assert that she falls into that category, you have to show evidence that there is an ongoing pattern of behavior. It is clear you have no such evidence, and I see none to be gleaned from the article.

I hope you are never caught in a similar situation. This is like an accountant being accused of embezzlement because of a keystroke error inputting a number incorrectly in a spreadsheet. One time? Probably not intentional. Several? Now we have a real question.
