A 24-year-old former substitute teacher from Iowa who was arrested in July after admitting to a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old student says he had swept her off her feet with love notes scribbled on Post-Its.
Mary Beth Haglin, of Cedar Rapids, has been charged with misdemeanor sexual exploitation by a school employee in connection to her six-month tryst with a male student at Washington High School.
On Wednesday, Haglin pleaded not guilty to the charge in writing, and her trial date has been set for November 14. If convicted, she could face up to two years in prison and be required to register as a sex offender for 10 years.
Haglin was hired as a substitute teacher in January and was terminated in May at the conclusion of an internal investigation by school administrators. An earlier probe conducted in February had failed to prove any wrongdoing on Haglins part.
Both investigations have since been labelled as ineffective by the school district and led to the resignations of three high-ranking officials, reported The Gazette.
It is believed that Haglin and the victim had been in a sexual relationship for almost the entire duration of her tenure at Washington High School.
Speaking to Inside Edition this week, the 24-year-old woman apologized for the hurt she has caused, but claimed that it was her underage lover who seduced her.
He would come into my classroom, grab a Post-It, write something and stick it to my desk on his way out, she said. One note read, I love you so much, my empress.

Not Guilty
I was fifteen, she was thirty. You tell me who was bangin’ who.
House arrest. At my house.
17 will get you 20.
Va-va-voom..!
I can't stop laughing...............!!HAHAHAHAHAH...!!!!!
I am positive I needs me some tutoring.
It was not her fault; she could not help it.
Geesh!!!!
Same here. Mary Kay Letourneau made national news because her story was so weird and unusual. Now it seems you come across it every week.
So it’s as easy as writing something flirty on a post-it note, eh? I was working WAY too hard to score babes!
Coo coo ca-choo!
My daughter is a twenty-something teacher of teenagers.
She has a better moral upbringing and greater sense of professionalism than to do something like this.
When these stories hit the news I send her the clippings.
You know there is going to be a job opening, and she may
want to apply.
Definitely not guilty!
I’ve known 17 year old boys who would attempt to do that. However, I’ve never known 24 year old women who lacked the ability to resist unless there was a serious mental issue involved.
“the only thing I ever banged in high school was the erasers”

Wouldn’t touch it with a 10 foot pole. Not even somebody else’s 10 foot pole.
Not to mention that the college "educated" ones her age have been thoroughly feminized and tend to be re-equipped with a less virile mangina.
