JOURNAL STAFF AND WIRE REPORT
NORTH WILKESBORO - A former teacher in Wilkes County accused of having sex with a student was found dead Sunday, according to a report filed by the Wilkes County Sheriff's Office.
Stephen George Kennedy, 26, was found dead at 8:35 a.m. in his parent's home. His mother found him hanging by a necktie tied to a bedpost. The death appeared to be self-inflicted, the report said.
In May, Kennedy was called out of class and arrested at North Wilkes High School, where he was working as a substitute teacher. Charges included first-degree sex offense and indecent liberties with a minor.
Kennedy had been a teacher and assistant wrestling coach at North Wilkes Middle School in 2004, when he began a sexual relationship with a 13-year-old boy, authorities said.
The first encounter was on campus before wrestling practice and the encounters continued at Kennedy's home until shortly before his arrest, authorities said. Ken-nedy had requested a leave of absence last year and had been working off and on as a substitute teacher when he was arrested.
Kennedy had a court date on Sept. 1.
Good riddance, and rot in hell, subhuman filth!
I'm delighted the POS ended it all. I'd be even more delighted if the 13 YO's father was the one who ended it for him.
Does the homosexual lose its perversion
hanging from the bedpost overnight
If his mother says don't do it
will he hang with a tie in spite
Can you catch him while he's wrestlin
or diddlin kiddies left and right
Does the homosexual lose its perversion
hangin' from the bedpost overnight
I'm glad the victim's father DIDN'T do it so now he will be able to spend the rest of his son's growing up years with him rather than in prison.
Anyone names Stephen George or George Stephen is not to be trusted any more than anyone named KENNEDY!
Just think, the kids in CA are about to be taught this behavior is normal and they should accept it or be vilified and told they are abbie normal.
At least he could have rented out a hotel room instead of letting his mother find him.
"Just think, the kids in CA are about to be taught this behavior is normal and they should accept it or be vilified and told they are abbie normal."
Wow. That's a powerful statement.
Why aren't most of the parents pulling their kids out of public schools?
Oh yeah. I keep forgetting. "My kid's school district is the best."
Even if it's celebrating the Day of Silence and teaching my kid about homosexuality?
Wonder why we're seeing so many news stories about perverts molesting kids in the public schools today?
I'm just amazed how many stories we keep seeing. Very sad.
'nuff said.
List. :-(
Homeschool, people.
LOL
The guy just didnt give a damn who he hurt did he?
Which unfortunately means that much of Generation X will be diddling their wrestling students.
We should have the same attitude for perverted female teachers as well.
Buh bye you perverted sack of crap.
Saves the state the cost of a trial and the expense of incarceration. The Christian in me hopes he repented before doing himself in but the conservative in me is glad that the POS is not living on planet Earth anymore.
Your talents are wasted.
Agreed, d.
he was probably just practicin to be a pinata
