In the US state of Alabama, 27-year-old married mathematics teacher Ashton Alana McCluskey was arrested for sexual contact with a seventh grade student. The Daily Mail reports.
She was charged with having sex with a student under 17 and banned from communicating with the victim. Subsequently, Lauderdale County Sheriff Rick Singleton (Rick Singleton) released McCluskey on bail in the amount of $ 50,000 (3.7 million rubles). The teacher faces a prison sentence of two to 20 years and a permanent ban on teaching.
Presumably the seventh grader is a family member of a sheriff's office employee. The teacher's case was referred to the Alabama State Bureau of Investigation (SBI) due to conflicts of interest.
The headmaster of the school where McCluskey taught said the American was sent on leave after being charged.
According to the newspaper, the woman has been married for three years, the same number she teaches at school.
In September 2020, it became known that a married teacher from the UK had repeatedly had sex with a schoolboy who was friends with her son. At that time she was 33 years old, and the boy was 15 years old. Now the case is being examined in court.
