Teacher Admits To Sex With Her Student - Accuses Mother Of Cashing In

[matcom]

<snip>

A 16-year-old who videotaped himself having sex with his 31-year-old teacher and looked at photos of her naked is not a victim, the married mother of two says.

Amber S. Jennings, 32, who admitted this week that she e-mailed photos of herself naked to her former student, also criticized the boy's mother who reportedly said she wants to cash in on the incident with a civil suit.

``It is just unfortunate that she would go so far as to ruin her son's life in order to profit,'' Jennings told the Worcester Telegram and Gazette this week.

Jennings pleaded guilty this week to disseminating harmful materials to a minor and was sentenced to two years probation.

Jennings told the paper she's writing a book about the case.

Jennings met the boy while teaching English at Shepherd Hill Regional High School in Dudley.

Authorities say they started out as friends but things heated up in late 2003 when the boy was 16.

The two started having sex, videotaping their romps and e-mailing naked photos and messages to each other, according to court documents. The boy told authorities the sex was consensual.

``It was just an idea I had to tape it,'' the boy told authorities, according to court documents.

Jennings admitted this week that she e-mailed naked photos of herself to the boy.

The affair lasted until July 2004, when the victim's mom asked him about an online chat with Jennings.

Under the new agreement, Jennings pledged to stay away from the victim and surrender her license to teach public school in Massachusetts. She must undergo evaluations and treatment as a sex offender.

She is not required to register as a sex offender.

1. I'd so do her when I was 14

[matcom]

2. i included the pic

cause i'm hot for teacher :bounce:

[Bucky]

23. Most of the recent perv teacher cases of late have involved hotties.

It doesn't matter how gorgeous they are--these are sick women and they have no right at all being allowing within a mile of a classroom. A rubber room is more what they need. If any teacher tried anything like this with my kid, I'd wanna beat the crap out of them. If I ever tried this with any of my students, I'd beat the crap out of myself.

This goes against everything a teacher should be. Being an instructor is a trusted, nurturing job. Teaching should never have any sexuality involved ever. Last month when I was teaching myself CSS programming for my website, I even refused to masterbate.

[matcom]

24. bullshit

i KNOW you programmed with one hand :D

[Bucky]

26. Yes, but I denied myself my essense

It's amazing I don't call my site the Blue Bag Blog.

[Zomby Woof]

3. So waitaminute...

She accuses the mother of "wanting to cash in" on the incident, yet she herself is writing a book? :eyes: It's the American Way!

I am holding out for the made-for-TV movie myself. :eyes:

[Left Is Write]

32. That jumped out at me too. Talk about "cashing in."

I don't know about a movie of the week, though. Hasn't that been done...and done...and done...?

[RetroLounge]

4. Where's the video?

:evilgrin:

RL

[edbermac]

5. Hmmm...I'd pass on her...

Debbie's way hotter...

[Bucky]

25. No WAY! Here's a side by side

(1) (2)

(1) Sleek, brunette, glasses, a real "wrapped tight" librarian type vs (2) "a pretty girly-girl" blonde, probably high maintenance. Of these two, the brunette is clearly the more healthy and well adjusted sicko pervert needing to be locked away for years of mandatory therapy.

Remember, blondes don't have more fun; they only have more issues. It's probaly also worth noting that both woman have apparently hired identical twins for their legal defense teams. What's that tell ya?

[matcom]

27. i'd like to try them both

your honor :bounce:

I'LL report, I'LL decide :P

[Left Is Write]

34. I'd say Ms. Jennings looks blonde rather than brunette.

Dirty dishwater blonde with blonde highlights.

(Blondes have more issues?)

[WI_DEM]

6. that teacher must be nuts to consent to video taping sex romps

and to e-mailing naked pictures of herself to a 16-year old! Doesn't she know that a 16 year old guy would probably be having all of his friends looking at all of this? she sure didn't try to cover her tracks.

[bbernardini]

7. How has this not been on Fark.com yet?

Or did I just miss it?

[Arkana]

19. If Fark had it, Something Awful would too

and I don't think they do.

[ghostsofgiants]

36. It's probably on TotalFark right now...

Waiting to be greenlighted for Fark.

[Debi]

8. These women are just sick

I know we're all joking about this stuff, and I'm not going to rain on any parades here.

But are there really no other people to have sex with than underage boys?

Why can't they find an 18 year old to videotape 'romps' with?

Sheesh

:rant: sorry guys.

[Nicholas D Wolfwood]

21. Yeah, really.

It must be oh so difficult for her to find a halfway attractive guy over 18 to have sex with. :sarcasm:

[Nikia]

33. Maybe, she doesn't want to deal with adult men

She probably wanted someone to look up to her, not be an equal. A sixteen year old boy would be perfect for that requirement especially since she was a teacher at his school.
Regardless of the impact on the individual victims of these cases, these cases should not be taken lightly. If little or no punishment is given to these adult high school teachers, then adults interested in having sex with teenagers would be attracted to the teaching career for that purpose. Do we really want teenagers being seduced by teachers as a regular part of going to high school?

[Graf Orlok]

9. Where was she when I was in high school?

[imperialismispasse]

10. I gotta admit thats the first thing I thought too

But I also get the point the person said above, that these kids are probably too young to deal with this.

I think I would have found a way though. :D

[Nicholas D Wolfwood]

22. Just think of the stories that kid will tell when he IS able to deal!

That boy's a legend.

[underpants]

11. UPDATE-she just wanted to get into a NYC park

:bounce:

WOW another hottie teacher. What is up with THAT?!?!?

[matcom]

13. she can get in MY park

i won't even ticket her! cuffs? that's another issue entirely :D

:popcorn:

not this again....

c'mon now, you think it would have been cool, but really?

[chaska]

15. Well, all these female teachers "doing it" with students at least....

makes it better for men who work with children. Or so one would hope. A man can't get near a kid these days without being accused of something. And that is truly a terrible thing.

What the hell is the deal with these women? There are dozens (at least) of men (not boys) who would love to have a relationship with her, and she has to go THERE!

35. Why is he lucky?

If a male teacher preyed on a female student, would you consider her "lucky"?

39. And a predator is still a predator.

If it were my son, I sure as hell wouldn't consider him "lucky."

44. We're talking about an adult authority figure and a kid.

He may have been willing, but that does not preclude manipulation, and she's still a predator. Any adult, particularly one in a position of authority, who goes after a kid is a predator.

[mac56]

45. absolutely

I couldn't agree more.

[alarcojon]

51. Competely agree

good luck getting some serious discussion going on THIS thread, however.

[Nikia]

41. I'm not sure if it is necessarily completely different

I'm not a guy so perhaps I don't know. I do know that of my friends and aquaintances, the people most devestated after a break up for a considerable length of time (more than a couple weeks) have been guys. They were guys that were still devestated even if they could or even were having casual sex.
I don't think that most attractive popular teachers need to do much manipulation with either sex. Children are brain washed into being eager to please their teachers. Yes, some rebel as teenagers and hate teachers but young popular teachers generally are still liked and students will want their attention. Before they even try to seduce the student, they are at least 80% of the way there compared to a casual adult aquaintance. Teachers who take advantage of students know this.

[Splatter Phoenix]

49. The facts ARE the facts.

And the fact is that teachers are trusted in their positions not to take advantage of students regardless of gender. I have known several males whose interest was not purely sexual and it horrifies me that you would pidgeonhole the gender in such a way; "All a teenaged boy wants is sex and more sex". I don't need to insult anyone, that statement alone insults the person who issued it.

[MrSlayer]

50. Perhaps I should have qualified the statement.

99.9% of teenaged boys want sex and more sex.

[Purrfessor]

17. I can't pass judgment until I see the pictures and videotapes...

eom

[Dave Reynolds]

18. Oh yeah...

You are on fire this week.

:popcorn:

Why do mods hate this smiley?

[matcom]

20. I just report

YOU decide :D

[Pacifist Patriot]

28. The next person who trounces me for being a homeschooler...

is going to get a very loud raspberry in their direction. ;) I don't seduce my students, I seduce their dad.

[matcom]

29. but HOW are they EVER gonna "experience" new things?

:D

[LeftyMom]

30. OMG! You're sleeping with your students' Dad?!?

That's soooooooooo wrong! :hi:

37. I need to go back to high school

[Rabrrrrrr]

40. What is with this long line of female teachers taking advantage of boys

Teachers who are all, as I've seen in the pictures, fucking hot. Hot hot hot. Sometimes, hotter than shit hot.

Kids today sure have it nice.

All I had were old women for teachers. I bet in my entire school career, I never had a teacher under 40, most were well into their 50s and 60s, except my second grade teacher, who was probably early 20s.

My school experience was the shits.

I want to go back to school, now that they have hotter teachers.

Damn lucky kids.

I wonder if I can get his email, and see if he'll send me any photos?

[mac56]

43. To every guy writing how they wished this had happened to them

when they were in high school - -

No, you don't.

Something would have told you that this situation wasn't right, that this person who was supposed to be your custodian and caretaker was treating you as a peer and a sexual partner. You'd be freaked out, but still believing you were expected to enjoy it. You'd be worried that her husband/boyfriend/etc. would catch you in the act, and beat the shit out of you. And you'd be anxious about your parents finding out.

I don't care how much of a high school horndog you thought you were. You may have fantasized about teacher, but you really wouldn't have wanted it to happen. This kid is going to be fucked up in later life.

[Pithlet]

46. But, boys and girls are different

Boys want sex and girls don't. Very heavy :sarcasm: I'm so tired of sexist double standards.

[tigereye]

48. ah at last, the voice of reason

thanks, Mac.

[LisaL]

47. Jennings accuses the mother of wanting to cash in?

LOL. Then WTF is Jennings doing when she says she wants to write a book about this case? Gee, crime pays.
And who in the world is reading all these crappy books anyway?
