Teacher Virginia Cammack, 35, Accused of Improper Relationship With Boy, 17 - Katy, Texas

The young man in this case claims he originally went to the apartment of teacher Virginia Cammack, 35, to download some music. Instead, it appears he was uploading some DNA samples to her . . . if you know what I mean (wink, wink, nudge, nudge.) According to the "victim" while at Cammack's apartment he went to move past her and somehow they ended up kissing. That, naturally, lead to the boy carrying her to the bed, where she told him that she "had a feeling for him that she could not explain" (horny, perhaps?) and they had sex.
The couple was caught after another parent saw the two embracing outside Cammack's apartment and sent an anonymous email to the principal.
Cammack has resigned her job at Morton Ranch High School in Katy, Texas where she has been a math teacher for three years. She's also been charged with improper relationship between a teacher and a student, was released on a $20,000 bond, and ordered not to have any contact with the boy.

Man Wears 'World's Greatest Dad' Shirt to Meet What He Though Was a 14 Year Old For Sex


We aren't sure if this counts as a mugshot or not but it's pretty damn awesome either way. What better way to make a good impression on a what you think is a 14 year old than wearing a 'World's Greatest Dad' t-shirt to the meeting. Bonus! The W in world is for the WWE. Here's the scoop, courtesy of MSNBC on 33-year-old Daniel Allen Everett who allegedly went to meet a 14 year old for sex during an undercover police sting in Troy, Michigan. They grow 'em bright up there for sure.

A 33-year-old Michigan man is accused of wearing a "World's Greatest Dad" shirt to a meeting for sex with what he thought was a 14-year-old girl.

Daniel Allen Everett of Clarkston was arraigned Tuesday in Novi on charges of child sexual abuse and using the Internet to attempt child sexual abuse.

A jail official said it isn't known whether Everett has a lawyer. A spokesman for Attorney General Mike Cox could not confirm whether Everett has children. But Cox said in a statement that the arrest is a reminder that "a parent can pose a threat to our children."

Magistrate Andra Dudley set Everett's bond at $50,000.

Housemother at Teen Home Accused of Sex With Boy, Gets Pregnant by Him, He Runs Away - Carolynn Hatcher

Ta-da! This lady probably couldn't have screwed things up more if she tried. Here's the background: Carolynn Hatcher, 25 is a married, and was--until very recently--the group-home housemother at a place for troubled teens called the Mid-Western Children's Home. While she allegedly worked there she took up with a troubled 16-year-old boy and got pregnant by him. His response? To run away, of course. To make matters worse, because he's a foster child and also a victim of alleged sexual abuse, cops apparently can't release his name or picture so the public can help in the search for him! At right, Carolynn Hatcher's mug shot picture.
Here's more from Cincinnati.com:
A 25-year-old married teacher and group-home housemother had a sexual relationship with a 16-year-old boy there - and became pregnant with the teen's child, authorities said Monday.

Now Carolynn Hatcher, who formerly lived with the teen in a group home, has been criminally charged and is in the midst of divorce proceedings.

Making matters worse: The teen has run away.

"It's heartbreaking and a tragedy all the way around," said Mike Fox, executive director of Butler County Children Services. "I promised to tell the truth, and this is one of those unbelievable, ugly truths that happen in the world of child welfare."

The boy's disappearance also creates an unusual dilemma for officials: They don't think they can enlist the public's help to find him.

That's because the teen falls under two classes that rightfully should shield his identity: He's both a foster child and an alleged sexual-abuse victim.

"Is it really in his interest to put his picture on the 6 o'clock news and tell people, 'If you see this kid, call us?' " Fox said. "Right now, the answer to that question is 'no.' "

Debra Lafave Update: Former Teacher Released From House Arrest, Begins Early Probation

You remember Debra Lafave don't you? The hot blonde teacher accused of having sex with a 14-year-old boy in the back of an SUV while his cousin drove? Well, she's been serving a three year sentence of house arrest, being only allowed outside to work and go to the grocery store. Well, Debbie musta been a good girl because the judge cut that house arrest six months short last Friday, and the cops deactivated the ankle bracelet she'd been forced to wear all that time and cut it off. We don't get to see Debra's smiling face as she left the court room, but the folks at Tampa Bay Online gave us this nice picture of her feet while still wearing the tether. Okay, who else finds that kinda sexy? In case you've forgotten what she looked like, read her full story here.
Here's more from their story:
Schoolteacher-turned-sex-offender Debra Lafave no longer will have to provide Florida Department of Corrections officials her daily schedule, and they no longer will keep minute-by-minute track of her whereabouts.
With Lafave having served more than 2 1/2 years of a three-year house-arrest sentence, a judge commuted the final five months to probation. She will remain on probation for seven years. Probation officials said Lafave arrived at the Plant City probation office at 8:20 a.m. Her probation officer deactivated the ankle bracelet and cut it off. She left at 8:40 a.m.
While on house arrest, Lafave was allowed to leave home for only a few reasons, including grocery shopping and work, DOC spokeswoman Gretl Plessinger said. Lafave had to write her schedule in advance and have it approved by a probation officer, Plessinger said.
Now, Lafave will have to meet with a probation officer regularly, and an officer will come to her home, but she will not have to present schedules for approval, Plessinger said. Because Lafave is a sex offender, she will be subject to a curfew for the remainder of her probation. She must be home by 10 p.m. and cannot leave before 6 a.m., Plessinger said.

Four Teachers From Same School Arrested for Sex With Students! - Helix High School

How many teacher sex scandals does it take to close a school? The answer in Southern California may be four in the last two years. All four incidents have happened at Helix High School which is a charter school. For those of you not familiar with charter schools, the are a cross between public and private schools, sometimes operated by religious groups, but using public money . . . just like public schools. Anyway, to get set up they have to get a "charter" from some oversight organization (usually a university) that helps set up their program. Most are pretty new, are small in size, have a lot of new, inexperienced teachers and staff . . . and sometimes it shows, like at Helix High School where four teachers have been arrested for having sex with students since 2006. Things are so bad, the local school board is thinking about pulling their charter and closing the school down. One plus in all of this: two of the teachers had sex with the same girl, so only three kids were involved, but four teachers. Okay, now that we think about it, that's not really a plus, just another odd twist in an already odd story.
Here's more from CBS 8:
Specifically, the Grossmont Board is demanding Helix's governing Board address the four cases of misconduct, training planned or already provided, changes to employee and student oversight and supervision to prevent inappropriate relationships between staff members and students.
"We are going to fulfill our oversight responsibilities and we are going to ensure that Helix High School is a safe place for kids," district vice president Dick Hoy said.
Four teachers have been accused of sex-related crimes involving students since late 2006. In December 2006, former music teacher Frank Palumbo was accused of having sex with a 17-year-old female student and was sentenced to five years probation.
Earlier this year, ex-band director Jessica Kahal got three years probation after pleading guilty to having unlawful sex with a 17-year-old male student.
In May, geography teacher Garry Wilcox was arrested on suspicion of having sex with a 17-year-old female student. He pleaded guilty and has a July 22 trial date.
Finally, business teacher Jeff Wenham resigned after being accused of having an inappropriate relationship with the same student allegedly involved with Wilcox. Wenham has not been arrested nor charged with any crime, and his case in being reviewed by the district attorney's office.

UPDATED: Missing Teacher Cara Dickey & Boy, 14, Found Separately But Questions Still Remain About "Improper Relationship"


UPDATE: Cops Say Hot Blonde Teacher Cara L. Dickey Had Suicide Pact With Eighth Grade Boy, Gave Him Alcohol and Over-the-Counter Drugs, Also Changed Her Hair Color - Well, that's not fair to any of us! How are we going to fairly judge how hot she is if she keeps changing her hair color? At right, a new picture of teacher Cara L. Dickey (with her husband) after she was released on bail last week. Below is an earlier picture of her as a blonde. No word as to why she made the change. Oh, and something about some new charges in the case: false inprisonment, giving the kid booze and pills and then having a suicide pact with him. We still don't understand quite what's going on here, but we're going to pull up a charge and grab some popcorn because this sounds like a good one. (Buffalo News)

EARLIER STORY: Teacher Cara Dickey was suspended earlier this week after the cell phone of a 14-year-old revealed what South Buffalo Charter School officials called "inappropriate messages" between the two. And the, almost immediately, both Dickey and the boy when missing. Eventually he was found at a mall and she asleep in her parked car, but police are still investigating the mother of three to see if anything illegal was going on between her and the boy. At right, the only picture we could find of Cara Dickey.
Here's more from the Buffalo News:
Nicholas G. DeJesus, a South Buffalo Charter School student from West Seneca, had been missing since he left the school on South Park Avenue without permission Monday afternoon.

Teacher Cara Dickey, 29, of Clarence had been escorted from the school after her suspension Monday morning.

School administrators had not heard from either until they were found this morning.

Nicholas was reunited with his family at a Buffalo Police station, while authorities said Dickey was in police custody. It is not clear whether she has been charged with any crime.

"I can't begin to express the excitement, the relief that this student has been found, and that this student is safe," said Cederick Ellis, director of the South Buffalo Charter School.

Ellis provided few details about Dickey's suspension or any possible relationship between the student and teacher.

"What we do know is that the student and the teacher were found separately," Ellis told reporters in a short briefing outside the school. "We have no idea about them being together."

Teacher Mandi Weeks Arrested for Allegedly Having Sex With Mentally Disabled Boy 15

It's been quietly lately, with school being out for the summer, but that just gives administrators more time now to investigate all the rumors about teachers having sex with students. The latest one is Mandi Weeks, 27, of Hannacroix, N.Y., who taught developmentally disabled kids at Devereux New York. At right, a picture of Mandi Weeks from her MySpace page.
Here's more on the story from Metro:
Mandi Weeks, 27, of Hannacroix, N.Y., faces multiple charges including two counts of third degree rape of a mentally disabled 15-year-old. The boy is a student at the same school where Weeks taught, Devereux New York, a residential school for children with special needs in the upstate town of Red Hook.
The boy was home on break from the school when the sexual assaults occurred twice in the boy’s Queens home and once in a parking lot, authorities said.
“The victim is believed to have a 50 IQ, making him particularly vulnerable to a teacher who is supposed to have his best interest in mind,” Brown said. The average IQ is 85.
Weeks was “terminated” from her job Tuesday, said John O’Keefe, executive director of Devereux New York.
In Weeks’ MySpace profile, she claims to take the drug Klonopin three times a day. According to Roche, the makers of the drug, Klonopin is a drug usually used to treat seizures and panic disorders. Some side effects include confusion, depression and increased libido.

Woman Robs Store With Her Two Kids in Tow, 7 & 2 - West Virginia

UPDATE: Now see the video of the criminal genius robbing the video game parlor. Her kids aren't on camera but you can tell that this woman, allegedly Melissa Spencer, wasn't shy with the gun!




Was it "Take Your Kid to Commit a Crime" Day? How come no one told me! Well, as it turns out, that may only be a holiday in West Virginia, where a woman was arrested for robbing a St. Albans video game parlor with a pellet gun. Nothing too unusual about that, except that she had two accomplices: her children, a boy aged 7 and a little girl, 2. Mom wasn't too bright though: she lived only 6 houses away from the crime scene and was easily apprehended a short time later and all of the money has been recovered. The children were sent to live with relatives who are less likely to take them along on crime sprees.
No mug shot was available, but you can guess she probably doesn't look anything like June Cleaver. On the plus side, she'll be able to pick up her "Mother of the Year" nomination form once she posts bail. (State Journal)

Kelsey Peterson Pleads Guilty to Taking 13 Year Old Student to Mexico To Have Sex With Him

Kelsey Peterson was a teacher in Nebraska before she fled to Mexico with one of her 13 year old students. It seems like she and her attorney knew that she was screwed so she decided to plead guilty in hopes that she would spend less than 10 years in federal prison. At what point did this sound like a good idea? Kidnapping? Sexual assault? Taking a kid over the border?

Video: Teen Decapitated by Batman Ride at Six Flags Over Georgia

If you lose a hat on a roller coaster, please just buy another one. This 17 year old kid rode the Batman ride at Six Flags theme park in Georgia and lost his hat. He allegedly hopped several fences to grab the hat while the ride was moving. It looks like he wasn't watching where he was going and the ride decapitated him. Lesson learned people!

Banned! Mini Me Sex Tape--Vern Troyer

Hallelujah! We have never been so happy that a video has been banned in our entire life. Hey, don't get us wrong, we love Vern Troyer (aka Mini-Me in the Austin Powers movies) but there are just some people who shouldn't have a sex tape...Liza Minneli for example. TMZ got their hands on the video of Vern with ex-girlfriend/model Ranae Shrider and thought it would be a good idea to post a portion of the allegedly stolen video. Now Vern and his lawyers are suing the internet gossip giant. If you still need your Mini-Me fix, here is a clip of him fighting Austin Powers in Goldmember.

Man Arrested for Using Taser to Get Girlfriend to Have Sex With Him

You still think everyone should be allowed to own their own taser? This is why the rest of us can't have fun stuff . . . it's idiots like this that ruin it for everyone else. A guy in Grand Junction, Colorado is accused of using his stun gun to try to force his girlfriend into having sex with him, saying, "I don't normally do this to anybody, but ..." . When you have to say something like that, it usually makes people think, yeah, you do normally have to do that. Dumbass!
Here's more from The Rocky Mountain News:
A Grand Junction man was behind bars Wednesday on suspicion of attempting to coerce his girlfriend into having sex by threatening to zap her with a stun gun. Christopher Morgen Taylor, 30, turned on a Taser three times early Tuesday morning after his girlfriend refused to have sex with him, according to an arrest affidavit for Taylor.
Taylor's girlfriend told police that Taylor turned the Taser on and said to her, "I don't normally do this to anybody, but ..."
His girlfriend said she told Taylor to turn off the Taser because it was "freaking her out," and she uttered a profanity and left the room, the affidavit said. She told police she was scared her boyfriend was going to use the device on her.
Officers with the Grand Junction Police Department located a stun gun on Taylor's bedroom nightstand after Taylor gave officers permission to search the house, the affidavit said.

Teacher Adrienne Laflamme, 60, Arrested for Sex With Two Teens, - Brevard Public Schools

Okay, we're not actually keeping track of this kind of stuff, but seems to us that, if true, this lady would have to be one of the older "teachers/cougars" we've reported on here at The Dumbass Daily. According to police, 60-year-old Adrienne Laflamme, a science teacher at the Juvenile Detention Center (that's right, she was allegedly hooking up with young criminals) had sex at least 15 times with a 17-year-old boy, including at least one time where another teenage boy was involved. Oh, and for good measure she also loaned they young punk her car while she was on vacation (maybe a seniors only cruise?) and then reported it stolen. Ouch! That'll snap the romance right of your relationship . . . and make it hard to get to the prom without your parents driving you, and still have enough room in the back seat for her walker.
At right, Adrienne Laflamme's mug shot picture.
Here's more on the story from Florida Today:
In a news release, police said Laflamme taught a 17-year-old male student in April and May. After the teen was released, Laflamme contacted the boy and began a sexual relationship with him, police said. They had sex at least 15 times, including one encounter where another teenage boy participated, police said.
Laflamme let the 17-year-old use her vehicle when she went on vacation but when she realized she was under investigation, she falsely reported to police that her vehicle had been stolen, Palm Bay police said.

Man Arrested for DUI in Motorized Wheelchair - Queensland, Australia - .301 BAC

Drunk? Yes. Asleep at the wheel? Yes. On a four lane highway in Australia? Yes. BAC over six times the legal limit? Yes. In a motorized wheelchair? Yes . . . wait, what? Here's more from The Daily Telegraph:
MOTORISTS had to swerve to avoid a man asleep at the controls of a motorised wheelchair on a north Queensland highway.
Police who breath-tested him allegedly found him to be six times the legal blood alcohol limit. Police found the 64-year-old man asleep in his wheelchair in a turning lane on the Captain Cook Highway at Stratford north of Cairns on Friday morning.
Passing police noticed him slumped in the wheelchair and stopped to help. They breathalysed him when they smelt alcohol on him. He allegedly blew .301, more than six times the legal limit.
He told police he was going 14km to Trinity Beach to visit a friend, most of it on the four-lane highway.

Drunk Man Drove Home Without Front Tire - With Picture

People in West Yarmouth, MA called police claiming their heard a strange sound going past their homes about 1:40 a.m last Saturday. It sounded like metal grinding, and when cops investigated, they found several roads with a gouge in them. So, they followed the gouge marks and found the car of William Fenton, 52, who drove his 2000 Cadillac Seville along about half dozen local roads . . . without a front tire! Here's more from the Cape Cod Times:
Officers tracked the scarred streets, following gouges along South Sea Avenue, Exeter Road, Crowell Road, Silverleaf Lane, Lorena Road and Lewis Road.
They found Fenton's Cadillac in his driveway at 131 Lewis Road, Hennessey said. Fenton appeared to be asleep behind the wheel, his shirt wet, the car still running. There was no tire on the right front wheel and the rim was "pretty chewed up," Hennessey said.
Officers knocked on the window, asking Fenton to open the door. He lifted his eyelids, smiled, and turned away, Hennessey said.
Fenton fumbled to turn off the car and was unable to unlock the doors. Eventually, he rolled down the window so officers could unlock the car, the Yarmouth police sergeant said. A Bud Light beer can was in the center console, and others were on the passenger floor, he said.

Teacher Julie Pritchett Accused of Sex With 8 High School Baseball Players - Clay-Chalkville Middle School

Let's see if we can wrap our heads around this one boys and girls: Trussville is a small town of about 13,000 people in Alabama. The local high school there has a baseball team and the young ladies who support the team during games and act as hostesses of some kind are called Diamond Dolls. And, of course, like any student group, the Dolls need a faculty sponsor who, in this case, is one Julie Pritchett, a married 34-year-old who is a middle school special ed teacher. In her role as sponsor--and sponsor of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes club--she came in contact with some former students and current members of the HS baseball team. And make contact she allegedly did! According to cops, Pritchett started a sexual relationship with one 15-year-old former student, then when he bragged to the other players, several of them approached her and the game was on . . . literally! According to at least one report, these hook-ups took place at the the homes of the victims, at the school, and--wait for it--during the sporting events (we're assuming this means baseball games.) Unfortunately, the normally forward-looking state of Alabama does not have a "persons in authority" law, so Pritchett will only be charged for having sex with a couple of the boys under 16. Still, she was charged with two counts of sodomy and one count of sexual abuse and could face 20 years in prison if convicted. Here's more from the World Net Daily:
The sheriff's department released a statement saying, "Phone records were subpoenaed and support the statements of the victims and witnesses. When the news media reported that a teacher was under investigation, Julie Pritchett changed her phone number, shut down her MySpace account and resigned from her teaching position where she was a tenured teacher."
A parent called the sheriff's department May 2 and complained that his son was being sexually abused by a teacher. Jefferson County school board lawyer Burgin Kent said the board placed Pritchett on leave, began its own investigation and notified authorities following reports of the abuse.
"It was an unfortunate situation," Kent said.
Pritchett sponsored hostesses for the Clay-Chalkville High School baseball team, called the Diamond Dolls. While she held the position, she became reacquainted with some of her former students who were active in the sports program. Christian said Pritchett then began having sex with a 15-year-old boy, and later had sex with at least seven of his friends. All of the incidents were initiated by the former teacher and several happened on school grounds. Other sex acts took place at victims' homes.
