A woman in Arkansas tried to have her felony sexual assault case thrown out of court by saying that she was perfectly within her Constitutional Rights to have sex with a male student. The court, however, has ruled otherwise and the case is proceeding according to the prosecutor's wishes.
No big deal, right? Wrong.
It turns out, the boy who she slept with (three times in one night, woo hoo!) was 18. Because he was her actual student, however, Melissa Monroe is charged with second degree sexual assault and providing alcohol for a minor. The unnamed male allegedly turned 18 that very day (wow-- to get it on three times with your hot teacher in her and her husband's bed, while drinking beer, on your eighteenth birthday? Almost as good as what we did on our 18th... but that's another story.) Nonetheless, state law mandates she be charged because of her status as a teacher.
One more thing: when are these teachers going to learn not to text about their relationships with students?
The young man went to her house on a January evening while her husband was out of town, according to a probable cause affidavit submitted by Detective Mark Jordan. The boy later told police they had sex and he stayed the night.
Monroe sent a text message to a fellow teacher at 7:30 p.m. Feb. 14 that read, "Help! I've made the worst decision of my life. And I don't know what to do." Monroe said that January night she was drinking and texting with a student. She said the student wanted to come over but she told him no. Eventually, he came over and they had sex three times.
The fellow teacher guessed which student.
Later that evening, Monroe texted, "You don't hate me do you?" and "At least he was legal. Haha," the affidavit says. [Dumbass Daily]
Ennhhh-- wrong! We're not sure what kind of jail time Monroe is looking at for her flub (maybe none), but she must really be kicking herself now...
