54! 54? She's 40 years older than the alleged victim. That has to be some kind of "cougar" record, doesn't it? Anyway, the story goes that Charlene Schmitz taught at Leroy High School in Alabama and is charged with second-degree rape and second-degree sodomy with a 14-year-old boy. The mother of the boy reportedly found emails between the two discussing oral sex, which is probably not the kind of stuff that is usually discussed at parent-teacher conferences. Cops questioned the boy who confessed that the pair had relations multiple times at her residence.
According to at least one report, Schmitz has children older than the victim and the police seemed particularly impressed with her, uh, stamina. "This is an unusual case for our area," Stringer said. "The age difference is 40 years between them. I've been in law enforcement most of my life, and I have heard of cases where a young teacher right out of college becomes involved with students in high school, but never an age difference like this," the sheriff said.

What a shame that our world has come to this. A point where Older teachers who are or could be grandmothers, wives, and mothers themselves do this kind of thing.In my opinion the victim and his family need our prayers and a bullet would be too good for her.
ReplyDeleteThis is truly a sad story for Leroy High School that has won two Championships this year, baseball and football. When we send our children/grandchildren to school daily, we don't know what might happen to them. Teachers are supposed to be protectors and not rapist. I would think this to be the largest age difference between teacher/student in the United States.
ReplyDeleteLooks like we won't see her for a while now! She was arrested Friday because she was with the kid at the football game, and not sitting in the stands at the football game, but on the baseball field alone. She was sent to Mobile today for the feds to deal with her. Good riddance! I've known this woman most of my life, and she was always very strange acting...glad I wasn't a boy!
