NEW YORK -- A Dutchess County special education teacher has been accused of having sex with a 15-year-old disabled student.
Teacher Mandi Weeks, 27, was arrested on Monday in Queens. She admitted to having sex with her student at the Devereux Foundation NY Center for the past month, according to police.
Weeks is being charged with two counts of rape with a child under the age of 21 and two acts of acting in a manner to injure a child under the age of 17.
The student was in the school’s residential program and lived on campus. He had been home on break for the last two weeks. Weeks lives in upstate New York and the reason for her commute to Queens Monday is still being questioned; sources said she may have been visiting her brother in Brooklyn.
The alleged sexual assault was discovered Monday when the student went missing and returned home on his own. His mother called John O’Keefe, Executive Director of the Devereux Foundation NY Center, and he directed her to call police. The alleged relationship between the student and teacher came to light during the investigation.
Weeks was hired to work as an educator at Devereux Foundation NY Center in Red Hook in February 2007. She came highly recommended from references, O’Keefe said.
The Devereux Foundation NY Center said it is fully cooperating with police. The school said it is examining if she had any other types of relationships with other students at the school.
Reminds me of a joke...
A guy is sitting in a bar enjoying his libation, when he notices a young woman walk in with a duck under her arm.
This impels him to go over and ask, “What are you doing with that pig?”
“That’s not a pig - it’s a duck!”
“I know! I was talking to the duck!”
CA....
Guilty and whatever other kind of charge you can throw in there.
Jim, ZOT this thread.
Tell me this....why do teenage boys place so much importance on getting laid? Do they ever think about stds or having to support a baby out of wedlock long before they’re able to? Are they able to think with their heads and not what’s in their pants? Do they really think so little of themselves that their future could be turned upside down for a little romp in the hay?
Help me out here....:P
Errr ... no.
This is lame
EXACTLY, not to mention how is scars us older men who is jealous as hell and would have worn her as a HUGE badge of honor in our day. What’s up with today’s male anyway?
lol
Yep, we need to keep all teenage boys at the same level of sexual mediocrity for their self esteem. Punish the over-achievers.
To answer in order ; I dunno , No , No , Yes .
“Jim, ZOT this thread.”
No, let’s keep it up. I’m curious just how many FReepers are going to come out in favor of raping a disabled kid with a 50 IQ. So far, it’s a good few.
Hormones, probably and a sense of being a man when you get it done. It is an undisputed fact that sex is the driving force in a teenagers life and has been for eons. It's all about natures prime directive to replicate the species.
Do they ever think about stds or having to support a baby out of wedlock long before they’re able to?
No
Are they able to think with their heads and not what’s in their pants?
No
Do they really think so little of themselves that their future could be turned upside down for a little romp in the hay?
They think plenty of themselves and maybe that's the problem Their only thought is getting themselves laid.
Help me out here....:P
Understand?
I wouldn’t ever let that happen to my friends. I would share.
Because they know it will feel good, and it will be good for bragging.
Do they ever think about stds or having to support a baby out of wedlock long before they’re able to?
No.
Are they able to think with their heads and not what’s in their pants?
Not most of the time.
Do they really think so little of themselves that their future could be turned upside down for a little romp in the hay?
Again, thought isn't much involved, other than "how can I get some." A "little romp in the hay" is exactly what most healthy teenage boys want.
That all being said, I'm not saying that the average teenage boy has good sense, common or moral. I'm just giving you my opinion, as a former teenage boy (who never went to bed with any teacher or other significantly older female).
Not really. Funny, but the driving force in my boys’ life has always been to get a college education so they could get a decent job. I was the same way in high school. I didn’t have time for boys because I was too busy mapping out my future. Thank goodness common sense prevails over hormones in my household.
It;s basically cuz they are told by their friends, movies,
TV, families that it is to be expected to be “laid” often,
and that there is no consequences of any sort. They are also
told that to NOT think this way is very bad (i.e. gay, scared,
pansy, wimp, crazy, not normal) and buy the way it’s completely natural to
have sex with anything you want to, after all it’s YOUR
world. Sadly many of them find out its the Babies world,
their sexual(opposite sex) partners world, and the
viruses, and bacterias world also. (not to mention the
cops, prosecutors, lawyers, manufacturers, hit-men, oil
companies, and “vinnie” the guy who hangs outside
your house world.
She left an email trail. And her victim has an IQ of 50.
No.
Are they able to think with their heads and not what’s in their pants?
no.
Do they really think so little of themselves that their future could be turned upside down for a little romp in the hay?
yes.
“.......how a healthy male between 13-18 is in any way harmed by having sex with his female teacher?”
Read the article. The student has an IQ of 50. I wouldn’t exactly call him a “healthy male.”
You’re new here. It would be good to make a habit of actually reading the article before commenting on it.
I think he made that pretty clear. Maybe you should read his entire post. I thought he asked a good question.
Not one person on this thread has condoned this woman's actions, yet there are several FReepers just salivating at the chance to start throwing stones. Idiotic.
