A South Garland High School teacher and student were caught in a compromising position in a car that put the teacher behind bars Wednesday.
Lindsey Holt, 23, faces two to 20 years in prison and a fine of up to $10,000 after police said they found her and the student in a car parked in a Garland park.
The teacher was released from the Garland Detention Center on a $5,000 bond.
Police charged Holt with having an improper relationship with a student, which according to state law involves sexual contact.
However, police have not charged her with sexual assault because the student was 17 and is officially an adult, but they said what happened at the Garland park was criminal.
The police have not released details, but said police officers doing routine patrols in the park came across the two in the car.
"They came across the vehicle, which for some reason raised their suspicion, walked up to it and that was when they saw the teacher and student in a compromising position," said Joe Harn, Garland Police Department.
The park is down the road from the South Garland High School where Holt is a first-year home education teacher.
"You're supposed to be teaching the kids and instead you are teaching them the birds and the bees and everything," said Chris Harnd, a former South Garland High School student. "That is not how it is supposed to go. Your supposed to be teaching home-ed and that is it."
Many students at the school described Holt as a popular teacher at the school.
"She was just a cool teacher," said Nathias Slaughter, Garland student. "I never thought anything. I never would have thought she would have an affair with a student from the school or anything like that."
Holt will not return to the classroom she has been placed on paid leave until the outcome of the investigation.
Police are still looking into what kind of relationship the student and teacher had, and more charges are possible against the teacher.
Lol, it's not a crime show. Murders don't take place on 7th Heaven, on or off the show. You just shoved the orange into the apple discussion. Family TV definitely has it's place and it's certainly popular, but all shows can't be family shows.
You would need to contact Bert Lozano at the WFAA link. I can not and will not disclose the female student's name. The female student victim's name is out there in the blogosphere. And some additional names. Even though baseball season is over, pitchers and catchers alike are very nervous. With good reason.
You sir, rock. Keep up the good fight and we got your back. And Dad's.
I know but I missed it last week and you got me thinking about it again.
Too bad Rockford Files aint on anymore.
I was hit on by a lesbian a couple of weeks ago.
And, I didn't even flirt with her. ;o)
I tried my best to enjoy the rest of the evening.
But, she kinda queered it for me, so to speak.
"but damn Hollywierd promotes queerness nauseatingly so"
I was surprised to hear Sela Ward speak sympathetically of it.
I do wish they weren't so in your face with it.
I guess I'm of a generation where one doesn't flaunt their sexuality
no matter which way one swings.
On a lighter note, I love your tagline.
It made me LOL. ;o)
I actually kind of like the show, but then there are shows that I happen to love that are way extreme like Rome on HBO.
Mr. Hand is the person most high school students used to have to date. Now, they practically have teachers stalking them. I don't know where these teachers were when I was a kid.
"I was hit on by a lesbian a couple of weeks ago."
Can't say as I blame her much. U R a cutie! (LOL)
They do queer it for everyone who is hit on. Thats just it.
Instead of relaxing one has to look over one's shoulder and it puts a chill on meeting new people. That inhibits one's freedom....
BTW happy turkey day to you!
You know...that's not a bad idea. Perhaps a 'PG-Q' rating, if a movie contains sodomite content.
ROTFLMAO!!! Happy Thanksgiving, Carlo!
I hope and expect that the queer cowboy movie will crash and burn ruining a couple of careers in the process. (I think Ledger will pay big time - Gyllenhal less so).If it fails in all but the usually suspected markets then hollywood (being the business that it is) will react by closing the checkbook when the next star-driven queer movie project comes looking for funds. If it beaks even though...look out.
Tuna sushi!
Sela is under a lot of pressure to conform.
Happy Thanksgiving Morn!
wonder where todd went?
there is no doubt the critics will love it....they will fall all over themselves to gloat about what a stunningly accurate portrayal it is...and it arguably will be well acted....the previews I've seen really go on about how well the women come out of it....which seems to be the gist of queer movies going all the way back to that early Martin Sheen movie of the week when the subject was first openly broached in the ealry 70s.....how well the women who must survive these tortured fools do....odd
i think some screenwriters let their boys-only wrangler club get the best of them
agreed!
oh-no another homo-movie-rant from wardaddy
well, i watched star wars last nite...and it was homo-free thankfully....
Happy Thanksgiving
LOL well it's understandable!
I substitute taught at South Garland and its rep is below contempt. The students rule the roost and its just a matter of which gang is in ascendance. Remember a couple of years back when a gang fight was video taped and the Dallas and Garland Police were able to round up the gang members because the video wa uploadd to a website? Yup ain't Arlan Texas great!!!
I surely hope you are male. ;o)
You are absolutely right in that it makes one uncomfortable.
I really liked Ellen DeGeneres before she outted herself.
After that, and as public as she was about it, I couldn't watch her anymore.
Now that she's doesn't flaunt it, I am able to enjoy her, once again.
I don't need to know that much detail about anyone.
Some things are better left unsaid.
I hope you had a very Happy Thanksgiving Day. ;o)
I can well imagine Sela's need to comform.
She likes to work. ;o)
I hope you, and yours, had an excellent Thanksgiving Day.
I have no idea where Todd is.
He might be behind some of the ZOTS, though. ;o)
