What a great way to start off the week with--surprise--a female teacher sex scandal! This time it's allegedly a 41-year-old teacher from Huntington, Texas. At right, a picture of Melissa Beth Williams in court. Here's more from the Lufkin Daily News:
Appearing in court with her husband Friday afternoon, Melissa Beth Williams, 41, turned herself in to the Angelina County Jail at approximately 1:30 p.m. before being released on a $25,000 bond an hour and a half later, said her attorney Ryan Deaton. She has been charged of improper relationship between an educator and student — a second-degree felony charge in Texas. "She said that she is not guilty of this offense," Deaton said.
In the affidavit, Williams admitted to sexual contact with the student. According to the report, two witnesses said the student told them "shortly after the sexual contact occurred" that he'd had sex with Williams.
Child Protective Services contacted school officials Tuesday after the student's mother called them, said Huntington ISD police Chief Michael Jinkins. Jinkins booked Williams into jail after her brief bond hearing Friday. "We expect all teachers to hold themselves in a respectful and professional manner with all staff, students and community," he said. Williams, who resigned Wednesday, was a teacher at the Huntington Pride alternative campus and has four children, including three in the school district, according to Deaton. Her oldest son is 17, said Williams' husband, David, during the court hearing. Williams' husband filed for divorce from her in August, according to district clerk records previously printed in The Lufkin Daily News. The couple agreed to dismiss the filing days later, according to records at the Angelina County District Clerk's Office.
While Williams is out on bond, she is prohibited from going within 50 feet of the campus at 908 Main St. in Huntington, said Justice of the Peace Billy Ball, who set her bond provisions. She is also prohibited from being around anyone under the age of 18 unless a person over the age of 21 is present. Ball is also requiring Williams to submit to drug testing.
Apparently, she wears low-cut tops to draw attention away from her face.
ReplyDeleteShe actually flirted with every boy in the class! She wore short cut tops everyday and mostly dresses! If you ask me, she is not even that pretty, she had hair extensions! I have seen many teachers way prettier than her!
