Gentlemen of the jury, have you reached a verdict?
Special education teacher, huh?
Not the best picture. Perhaps if the content of the sexually “explicit” conversations were made available , a decision could be reached. /s
She looks innocent, but I would need a better picture to be sure ...
Well on RatemyTeachers.ca she only got a 3.8 out of 5 for “Average Easiness”. (Many did describe her as “beautiful” though.)

There really is an epidemic of women teachers abusing teens and subteens for their(the teacher’s) sexual gratification. A teacher is an authority figure. When is the NEA going to come out with some kind of statement or program against this kind of activity?
Women’s libbers railed against the abuse of power by men over women, and now women are showing they can abuse their power as well. Where is the outrage by the feminists?
And lastly, any comments on why this is a current epidemic?
Why are these women doing this to their students? Is it a power thing? Is this more common now, than before? Or perhaps, more known now because people are revealing these activities and prosecuting?
Although there have always been these kinds of liasions, it is amazing to me the high number of teacher student liasions, where the situation is fraught with the possibility of a leak of confidentiality and the loss to the teacher of their professional accreditation that they worked for. This is very dangerous behavior just on the professional level, let alone the moral and ethical ;evels for a teacher.
Why take the chance? I don’t understand this kind of behavior, outside of base human desires. I wonder if there is another dimension to this.
more evidence is required, but I’m feeling lenient based on the pic.
Has anyone else noticed something here...
People scream bloody murder over the religious leader sexual abuse of young boys (i.e. homosexual, though that word is NEVER used in the media), primarily in the Catholic Church (though it’s happened in other religions as well). Now don’t get me wrong. This sort of thing is evil, and the harm it causes the child is devastating.
However...
Does anyone else notice that for the most part, the media is silent on the sexual abuse of children by public school teachers?
It seems to me that this sort of thing is far more prevalent than what we hear about with the Church.
Could it simply be that the media is more protective towards public school teachers, who tend to be union members, and be liberal, usually with the same political agenda as the media?

BS a 16 year old male cannot be assaulted by a female. At 16 he is looking for as many and as much as he can find.
not bad, I wouldn’t throw it out of bed. not for a while anyway..
Probable cause
I'm sure she does

Overreaction??????
not guilty
Looks like an over-reaction and abuse of prosecutorial authority to me, based on the ‘victim’s’ own statement.
In cases like this a gun collection or nice bass boat can make the difference.
I would have to see THE WHOLE BODY OF EVIDENCE before rendering the decision........
16 is the “age of consent” in many states, and in FL only if the other person is not more than 5(?) years older, IIRC.......
Teachers, and by inference, Teacher’s Unions, are a “protected” class of individual. The MSM considers these stories “local” and unworthy of national exposure, unless there are circumstances that they cannot quash themselves, like the teacher got pregnant or something like fleeing to Mexico.........
