Teacher's Aide Abbiejane Swogger Found in Hotel Room With Teens, Beer, Pot, Open Condom Wrapper - Highlands Senior High School

UPDATE: One Time Exotic Dancer Abbiejane Swogger Loses Teacher's Aide Job - And we finally have a picture! Oh, and the cops are saying it was crack cocaine in the hotel room, not just pot, so she's got that going for her.
EARLIER STORY: Sounds like a full night! This one is a little complicated, but we'll see if we can break it down for you: Abbiejane Swogger, 34, is a teacher's aide at Highlands Senior High School in Harrison, PA where her 15-year-old son goes to school. Cops say she allegedly rented a room at the New Kensington Clarion Inn Hotel and when they found her there Friday, she was not alone: Inside the room were two teenaged boys and two girls, some beer, some weed and what appeared to be an open condom wrapper. And all of this happened AFTER rumors began circulating at Higlands that Swogger was having inappropriate relations with some of her son's underage friends, reports that she denies. She claims it's all a big misunderstanding and that she booked the room for herself and some friends . . . and a blind date . . . and the kids just happened to show up. Sure.
Here's more from the Pittsburgh Post Gazette:
Abbiejane Swogger, 34, said rumors already had been circulating through the high school that she was having sex with her son's friends. It is "absolutely not" true, according to Ms. Swogger, but the police finding the boys in Room 107 of New Kensington's Clarion Inn Hotel after spending the night there with her will only fuel those rumors, she acknowledged.
She knows her arrest is going to heap embarrassment on her son at school, Ms. Swogger said.
"I was stupid, very stupid -- I already know I was and I can understand you looking at me wrong," she said. "It's the biggest mistake I ever made in my whole life."
The mother of one of the two 15-year-old girls found in Ms. Swogger's hotel room, however, said she wants for the aide "never to step in a school again." She is eager, she said, to press charges against Ms. Swogger after searching in vain for her daughter all Thursday night, only to have her returned after a night with an open case of beer, several teenage boys and the teacher's aide.
Police said the girls cut class on Thursday and walked to the home of one of the boys in Natrona, where Ms. Swogger picked them up and took them to the hotel room.
Ms. Swogger denies she drove the teenagers to the hotel, saying she rented the room with two female friends in their early 20s and was drinking beer there with them so her sons, ages 12 and 15, wouldn't see her drinking at home. The underage girls and boys, she said, showed up later that evening and refused to leave even after she told them they couldn't stay.
"Maybe the girls are trying to hide something and they are just using me so they don't get into trouble," Ms. Swogger said. "Maybe they were there with somebody they shouldn't have been with."
Her friends, she said, were trying to set her up on a blind date with someone, but the arrangement fell through and "it ended up being all these little kids."
When the police arrived at the Clarion at about noon on Friday, Ms. Swogger was in the lobby, they said. She told officers that no one else was staying with her, but agreed to let them look in her room, where they found the teenagers. Ms. Swogger's son was not among them, although she said she had told him where she was staying and he had stopped by her room the previous evening.

"Well Ms. Swogger, barring any concerns from your background check, I think I can safely say, welcome to Highlands."
"Oh, you were an exotic dancer? Ah well."
But wait...there's more! In the Valley News Dispatch 2/29/08 they have a nude picture of her with a number of teens circulating on cell phones around the area. So much for that whole 'I didn't do it' shtick.
