Former high school teacher Shannon Marie Quinn has pleaded guilty to two counts of sexual exploitation after admitting to sex crimes against two 17-year-old students.
Quinn, also known as Shannon Greffe, was 40 at the time of the sexual offences against the two minors and was employed as a teacher at St. Francis Xavier High School in Gloucester.
She pleaded guilty in an Ottawa courtroom on Jan. 22 where she was represented by criminal defence lawyer Sean May.
Ontario Court Justice Michael Boyce authorized the release of an agreed statement of facts entered into the court record by Crown attorney Stephen Albers to support Quinn’s guilty plea.
The judge reinforced a strict publication ban that prohibits any information that could identify the youth victims.
According to the agreed statement of facts, Quinn had been teaching for 20 years at the time. She started chatting with the first youth victim over lunch and “started to discuss issues in her personal life… in particular issues with her ex-boyfriend.”
She sent the youth a direct message on Instagram and the two began to exchange text messages. Those messages became “flirtatious” after a few weeks.
She texted the first victim while he was in class one day and asked if he wanted to come over to her house at 8 p.m. that night. He went to a friend’s house and Quinn picked him up there, according to the agreed facts.
Quinn gave the teenager a tour of her house that ended in the bedroom, where Quinn showed him her shoe collection and the two sat on her bed.
“They began flirting and touching, but nothing more at that point,” according to the agreed facts. Quinn then told him, “Is that how you shoot your shot?”

That article reads like a Fifty Shades of Grey sequel.
She’s a woman. Hot one at that, for being 40.
She’ll get off lighter than a man would.
FWIW.
How does the song go?
“Catholic girls learn much too late...”
Not Guilty
I’d rather have had my 17 yr old son diddle around with a 40 yr old teacher than knocking up a 15 or 16 yr old.
Needs a real friend....some therapy to help her cope with loneliness...and probably some sexual activity in the waning years of her life. She knew a 17 year old male would have great difficulty controlling himself. She went for the easy pickings.
Looks good enough, but real sad inside.
IMHO
I love how some think this is hot stuff but they all end the same way with the students knowing that it’s not right and tell authorities. This is especially true of the boys. NJ where I unfortunately live has an epidemic of pervert teachers. Just teach and screw your husband or wife. If your lonely buy a cat or toy. Leave them kids alone!
I’ll interrogate her...
A good spanking will straighten her out.
It was an open secret that several of the male teachers were “dating” (i.e. having sex with ) senior and junior girls. It was always kept hush hush though everyone in town knew.
If the age of consent is 16 than not guilty.

Kid had a good thing going but couldn’t keep his mouth shut and had to brag to somebody.
