My, my...
A Washington State court has just decided that it is not unlawful for a 33 year old teacher to have sex with his 18 year old student......

That Washington “Judge” decided the law was meant to apply only to 16 and 17 year old students....... Convenient, huh...

If only the poor girl had lived in Washington state.

Washington Court: Teachers Can Have Sex With 18-Year-Old Students

Iowa is just TOO conservative.</sarcasm>

What is it that I’m missing here. The guy is 18 years old. What is the legal age of consent in Iowa, 35? Why are the police getting involved? I can see improper conduct between teacher and student, but shouldn’t that be between the school and the teacher? Somebody help me here.

Still not the most disturbing perp I’ve ever seen. There was a woman in Vero Beach, Florida who was hooking up with a early-teen boy for a few years who looked like a female version of Stephen Root as Milton in “Office Space”.

How is this different than what Bill Clinton did?

This is ridiculous. The chick is 27 and the guy is 18? If he were 17 I wouldn’t have a problem with this. The fact that he’s an adult— this is outrageous.

The only issue ought to be that she was in an authority position so maybe she should lose her job. But to get the courts involved I think is just overkill.

The student she's accused of have a relationship with, is an 18-year-old male.

sConsenting adults. Case dismissed.

guilty with a small ‘g’ with the option of upgrading to a large G pending further deliberation.
