CA: Second female teacher charged with molesting student (Taft near Bakersfield ,, 31 yo w/ 17 yo)
Bakersfield Californian ^ | 1/5/06

A second female teacher has been accused of molesting a male student, Kern County Superior Court records show.

Jennifer Lynn Sanchez, 31, a mathematics teacher at Buena Vista Continuation High School in Taft, was charged on Dec. 22 with four counts of unlawful sexual intercourse with a 17-year-old student, and one count each of oral copulation and sodomy with the same student.

She has resigned from her teaching job, school officials said Thursday.

She has pleaded not guilty in the Taft division of Kern County Superior Court and is scheduled for a preliminary hearing on Jan. 26.

Her bail initially was $150,500, but it was reduced on Dec. 28 to $25,000 and she has since posted that bail, court records show.

The case was investigated by the Taft Police Department. The alleged sexual encounters occurred between Oct. 1 and Nov. 21.

This case was brought to light following the arrest Wednesday of Sherry Brians, 41, a seventh-grade teacher at Buttonwillow School who was charged with engaging in lewd acts with a 12-year-old boy at the school. She is scheduled to be arraigned Friday in the Shafter division of Kern County Superior Court.

"Absolutely no teacher in K-12 should ever under any circumstance be allowed to have sex with a student. Period. I don't care if you have a 19 year old on his third try at senior year. Teachers are in a position of authority and like any other workplace, authority is too easily abused and should be prohibited."

Agree. I just see no point in putting her in jail - fire her and ban her from teaching.

I would guess that she gets charged with all of it...he's a minor.

She's a friendly one, though, isn't she?

Agreed. During my entire student career I was only aware of three teachers sleeping with students... the one male teacher was caught and fired (and now manages a shoe store) but the two women, one straight, one lesbian -well nobody even thoguht of turning them in.

It's probably easier to put a unionized teacher in jail than to fire her.

Can someone explain to me when a minor is having sex with a minor the verbiage is "they're going to do it anyway", "sexual empowerment", "you can't stop them" and "they need to know about real life", etc. etc.

But when same minor has intercourse with someone much older the verbiage is "molestation", "minors can't make decisions like that", "children shouldn't be having sex", etc. etc.?

In most states oral sex is considered sodomy [legal definition].

When I was in the sixth grade, I had to go to summer school for Math. My teacher was this drop-dead beautiful young thing (even to a sixth grader) and I had an unbelievable crush on her. I don't remember minding going to summer school. I heard every sailor on the base was after her, and she ended up marrying one...gosh, my little sixth grade heart definitely went pitter-patter. No wonder I never got the hang of math.

Human nature, sadly.

Not all succumb , but.. cultures eventually crumble from within as morals and ethics are ignored by their leaders.

I won't mention my German teacher.

My geography and history teachers offset her to no end, however.
