VINELAND, N.J. - November 21, 2008 - (WPVI) -- She was an adult film star who went by the name Crystal Gunns. But she reportedly says that's part of her past.
She now an aid at D'Ippolito Elementary in Vineland, New Jersey, and that has some parents furious.
"I understand it's her personal life, but I don't feel someone with that background should be working with young children at all," said preschool teacher Maria Martin.
Crystal Gunns is apparently retired. She's now Louisa Tuck, a cafeteria and playground aide at D'Ippolito Elementary.
They were stunned.
A background check turned up nothing. They wanted to take action, but lawyers advised them not to. Tuck hadn't done anything illegal.
Some parents agree.
"It's in her past. We all do things in our past. And as long as she's not interfering with any kids, I don't see any problem with it," said Raul Cordova of Vineland, N.J.
Action News was unable to reach Tuck. She also works at the local YMCA. A co-worker described her as a great person.
In a interview with a local newspaper, Tuck defended her ability to work around children despite her past career.
(edit)
The school superintendent says the district is investigating all of it's options to see what sort of recourse it has.

Pornstar working in an elementary school ping
Have to wonder if the ones calling for her dismissal are the same as those supporting sex-ed and the teaching that a gay life style is the same as a hetrosexual life style.
What’s rather obvious is the only way she was discovered was by somebody recognizing her. So what does that say about these parents when the brouhaha was begun by a hypocrite? Additionally, they’ve caused more problems by making a big deal over this so it ends up in the news and then the school kids and the YMCA members will all know. Sometimes people should just shut up. I’m sure these self-same people would expect to be forgiven for any of their closet skeletons.
Hah! I saw her pic and all the " birds**t" eye makeup and I knew it had to be New Jersey.
AAAHHHHHH! GUILTY!
They could be a bit distracting for the students.
On November 21, 2008, the Vineland Daily Journal reported that Gunns was working as an aide at a New Jersey elementary school, where parents called for her firing after news surfaced of her work in porn. Under her real name Louisa C. Tuck, she said that she hasn't worked in adult entertainment for five years and should be able to continue her job. "If this is about morality, our president-elect has admitted to doing crack, and he's our president. Does that make him a bad person?"[1]
No Crystal ... Smoking crack has nothing to do with him being a bad person.
Seems to me she’s doing the best she can to live a good life. None of these are exactly high paying jobs.
Live and let live.
Yikes !
I didn’t want to offend...
Sorry, but what about her being a former porn film actress disqualifies her from working with kids?
Interesting tattoo...
Yikes !
No offense. When does she start teaching the adult ed classes...?
Guilty
The goods are covered. ;)
In all honesty, I think she's a freak. It's obvious those babies aren't natural.
My intent wasn't to offend. I'm sure, given thirty seconds on Google, I and everyone else could find more explicit-but-clothed pictures.
The picture is from Wikipedia and it shows her most, ah, well-known feature.
Wow, the lunch ladies at my school never looked like that!
