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.
In this example, the difference is between a statutory crime commited against a minor, and a crime against another person (emancipated). To discern the difference between a 16 year old that said "yes" and a 17 year old that said "no" is not within the capacity of the media.
Yes, but it does not say what I want to see... "Homosexual content in this movie" That would be a good thing.
Thank you....
sorry it took me so long to respond to your kind posting of the law...I have been baking cookies for Thanksgiving tomorrow...
Have you gotten over your autophobia?
Is that true. I wondered because the papers usually indicate if it is a male.
I've got leftover plates of spaghetti in the refrigerator no farther apart in age than these two...
That sir, is truly funny.
"in Brooklyn they might call it the Bums Rush--"
maybe the 'Bush League' would be more appropriate--?
Sorry, no equal protection.
Well, that was the windup, here is the pitch....
Gay women who recruit their students are going to demand that they are 'equal' to the straight women who have sex with their students, and any obviously harsher sentence imposed will be challenged all the way to the SCOTUS.
Coming soon to the MSM, homosexual male teachers will demand equality with homosexual female teachers, when they are caught with their 'gay' 13/14 year old student., then they are really off to the races.
Has there really been a 'rash' of teacher/student activity, or have we just been hearing more about what has always been going on?
Is their a group behind this in the MSM?
Notice the perps in the female teacher/young man student scenarios were reasonably good looking--enough that the average 14 year old guy in rutt would consider them so.
This perp does not fit that mold, so who cares?, right?
Some agenda pushers have to be laughing their butts off over this set-up, whether the perceptions from media coverage reflect reality or not.
Yikes! That teacher got smacked with the "ugly stick" a few too many times.
Nope. I still don't care much for cars. I'll drive whatever, and it doesn't matter much to me as long as it runs. At 42, a car to me is still what gets you around when for one reason or another you can't ride your bike.
YUCK!.. Are you sick? Linking pasta and youknowwhat in the same sentence could get your a$$ kicked in my old Italian neighborhood..
Yeah, that's a few years of uninterupted growth going on there. I had do something. So many dentist think they can grow a few days worth of stubble and think they're bikers now. I can't grow my hair long, because, well, I can't grow any hair, so what was left?
I've got nieces no farther apart in age than these two. I would be a bit disappointed if they were arrested in a compromising position in a public park. Just sayin'.
It probably is but I will not set in the same room with homosexual inuendo and worse baltently displayed in my home. Every one that lives here knows it and thats the way it is.
...and while we are on the subject of me being an asshole, all the CSI, Medium, Law & Order, et al.....shows that show gratuitus maiming and killing repeatedly at close detail with blood spurting everywhere is dangerously close to getting the same treatment. The are good (on ocation) shows but I will not stand for the de-sensnitization of my childeren to graphic violence or the homosexual agenda.
I have become my father. Thanks Dad!
I guess we could go back to the days of Baranaby Jones where the actual murders took place off camera, but I have $100 that says the first show that tries it tanks with incredibly band ratings.
Amen
it looks great!
7th Heaven on WB seems to be doing nicely.
