Are you saying someone shouldn't be held to the terms of their contract?

Yes, of course they should. "Morale Turpitude," that's the key. It's not LAW! I'm outraged at the sentencing guideline which is 2-20 for having CONSENSUAL sex! It's puritanical priggish BS! I do think what she did was absolutely morally wrong, but not unlawful. The possibility she could go to jail for TWO years is ridiculous!

Fire her, revoke her teacher's license for life, don't give a judge the power to sentence this "crime" for 20 years. It's wrong and everyone here knows it!

Your screen name implies you search for truth.

Yes, and the truth of this is even in the State Of Texas it's not against the law to have sex with consenting adults no matter how many there are, right? Is this not the "Truth?" Or in your world does morality trump law in our nation, because if it does America cease to exist for you...this is why LAWS keep us FREE. If you don't understand this you need to go read history!

The TRUTH is she was arrsted for 'consensual sex' because it was a breach of her teaching contract.

LOL! you complain about 'morality trumping law', yet that is EXACTLY what your asking for.

Your idea of what is or isn't 'moral' vs the LEGAL obligation the teacher imposed on herself by signing her contract.

Unless you believe people should not be held to their signed oaths and their promises to perform to those terms.....which, BTW, IS the Law.

Oh, please. Someone who thinks it's a bad thing that teachers are held accountable when they decide to violate the public trust have no clue about law, much less history.
