Teachers as Sex Offenders: New Face, New Database

Sexual predators are on the rise in our nations schools, the perpetrators are teachers. Take a look at the following three cases; do you know what they have in common?

Grand Rapids, Mich., a teacher at South Haven's Baseline Middle School pleaded no contest to sexually assaulting a 14-year-old female whom was "married" to the teacher in a pagan ritual.

Ferguson, Mo., a special-education teacher is charged with statutory sodomy involving at least three students at Ferguson Middle School.

Tampa, Fla., an area teacher was convicted of having sex with a 14-year-old student in the classroom and at the teacher's home.

According to a new collection of teacher sexual offenders provided by WorldNetDaily.com

These three cases, among many others, involve female sexual predators, mostly in their 20s and 30s. These convicts, with wholesome faces and demeanor, range from former beauty queens and athletes to having romantic involvement with school administrators. The victims of these sexual predators include children of both sexes, with ages of the child victims averaging in their young teens, with a range between nine to eighteen years old.

Appalling is the fact that many convicted female teachers receive little to no jail time, unlike their male predator counterparts. Many female teachers, convicted of sex crimes, get probation, a year or less in prison, and some receive temporary house arrest. Judges are quoted, in some of these cases, as telling the felons that their sentences would be much more severe if these female sexual predators were male. In truth, if these sexual predators were male, there would be public uproar.
