N.C. Teacher, 30, Charged in Lesbian Sexual Affair With Female Student, 17

Posted on | March 4, 2016 | 117 Comments

 

Police in Fayetteville, N.C., say Laura Garrigus, 30, had sex with a 17-year-old girl who was her student at Cumberland International Early College on the campus of Fayetteville State University. Garrigus, a married mother of three, is charged with four counts of taking indecent liberties with a student and two counts of sexual offense with a student:

Each of the counts represent a different sexual encounter between October and December, investigators said. . . .
Despite the alleged victim’s age, and regardless of consent, under state law, students and teachers may not engage in inappropriate relationships. Investigators said Monday that evidence in this case does point toward consent.
“I would say that based in the fact that from October to December that this happened, it went two months without being reported, they had known each other prior… I would (be) led to believe that it’s a consensual,” [Cumberland County Sheriff’s Office spokesman Sgt. Sean] Swain said. . . .
Should Garrigus make bail, she will not be able to have contact with any children younger than 18, including her own, until the matter has been resolved in the court system. The instructions made Garrigus visibly disturbed.
“Do you understand that?” asked District Court Judge Cheri Siler-Mack, after she read the directive.
“Not even my own children?” Garrigus asked.
“You will not be around any child under the age of 18,” Siler-Mack repeated.

Garrigus is married to a police officer, Heavy.com reports, and her Facebook page included numerous references to Bible verses. Her arrest is the latest in several recent cases nationwide.

Kimberly Naquin

Kimberly Naquin, 26, was arrested Jan. 15 after it was learned that the high school geography teacher had sexually molested a teenage student, according to police in St. Charles Parish, Louisiana. Naquin had sex with the girl on at least 10 occasions over the course of nearly a year beginning in September 2014 when the girl was 16, police said.

Johnna Feazell

In December, former Missouri teacher Johnna Feazell, 48, was sentenced to seven years in prison for sexually molesting a 16-year-old girl she had known since the student was in seventh grade. Feazell, who had coached sports at a Webster County junior high school, was also convicted of tampering with evidence.

Tiffany Howard

In December, police in Austin, Texas, arrested former Bowie High School teacher Tiffany Howard, 41, on charges that she sexually molested a girl during a three-year period that began when the victim was 13. Howard had coached the girl in seventh grade.

  • High school dance teacher Michelle Smith White, 37, of Durham, N.C., was charged in October 2014 with having sex with a 16-year-old female student. Police said White had the student’s name and initials tattooed on her body.

    Would like to see a frank discussion of the FEMALE SENTENCING DISCOUNT whereby women who commit the same crimes do the same time.
    They went back so that means it was a consensual relationship?
    Does that apply to Bill Cosby since his supposed victims went back time and again?

    With her own children? Ridiculous. Bond is to safeguard the public and ensure appearance at future hearings. Barring her from seeing her own children accomplishes neither of these goals. She has not been convicted. Punishing her and her blameless children does not serve justice.

    That you think it does make you, essentially, a bad person, regardless of whatever this woman is alleged to have done.

    The issue in play is whether she understands boundaries. Until that is settled, no kids. People have bail set for similar reasons, pre-conviction.

    They didn’t take the power from a locked filing cabinet or a bank vault. They didn’t take the power at the point of a knife or by thumping someone over the head.

    It’s words. Words at a borrowed pulpit. They’ve nothing to call their own.

    And as long as it stays words, it’s easy enough to defeat.

    There are no armed gangs marching. There’s no bombings.

    They’ve got signs. They’ve got textbooks. They have the shock value.

    They are trading on collective guilt which they try to repurpose into Moral Authority.

    That means you can’t rule others, no matter how much you disagree with them.

    To my knowledge, no biological component has been shown. Have you read anything like that?

    But even if there were, let’s take the example of someone with a gastrointestinal disorder, who frequently breaks wind. I’m betting such a person – even with a medical excuse – tries desperately not to do that, and especially in public. How I long for the days of yore, in which people tried not to do abnormal or outrageous things in public.

  23. NeoWayland
    March 5th, 2016 @ 3:03 pm

    It’s a very touchy subject.

    There’s a pretty good book, Biological Exuberance, on non-human homosexuality that lays some of the groundwork.

    http://amzn.to/1QZSmD9

    If homosexuality can be shown outside humanity, it probably means that there is a biological component.

    I’m not convinced that homosexuality is “wrong” as much as different. And if I’m not sleeping with them, how is it any of my business?

    Bullshit. I’m a lawyer, this is not for anyone’s protection. Statutory rape is not a reason for a bond requirement that one not see one’s own children.

    If you can’t see that pre-trial punishment is evil (we don’t even know that she’s guilty), then you are part of the problem.

    How can you be this dense. You don’t believe that the federal government in general and the 4th branch in particular determine what choices we are allowed to make economically and increasingly in our social and cultural lives? Do you really think that if the left quit yammering about climate change, the coal and electrical industries will be OK?

  27. NeoWayland
    March 5th, 2016 @ 4:42 pm

    Because I believe that the free market is the most potent force for organizing and creating yet discovered by humans. It cannot be managed, predicted, directed, or controlled.

    It rests on choice without coercion. And to keep customers happy, you have to at least do as well as your competition, better if you want to expand.

    The goal is not the institution of the Federal government.

    The goal is freedom.

  28. NeoWayland
    March 5th, 2016 @ 4:47 pm

    Governmental power is backed by force.

    But the progressives don’t have either total control or total sanction by government!!!

    As Limbaugh points out again and again, the progressives have to lie about what they are doing and how they intend to do it.

    The progressives wouldn’t have to lie IF they had control.

    I’m not going into it right now, but I will say that if conservatives hadn’t tried their own bit of social engineering, progressives would never have had an opening.

    The one at the top was married. If she was a man we would call the spouse a beard. What do we call her husband? A toothpick? Listerine? I’m just trying to get this nomenclature down, so to speak.

    Thanks for the tip. She’s quoted here.

    If you consider the Constitution (reasonable bail) law, then yes, I should say he broke it.

    It is typically difficult to get such decisions reviewed however.

    A similar male-male interaction would have sent that teacher back into the stone age. Or if it had been a male teacher-female student. I’m sure this was noted previously, but some comments need to stay near the top.

    Not really.

    Perhaps it’s easier to look from the other side.

    Government wants to encourage saving for retirement. Result: savings rates drop.

    Government wants to cut down recreational drug use. Result: narco-states and an exploding organized crime problem.

    Government wants fair medical insurance. Result: medical care becomes harder to find and more expensive, insurance companies go bust, and millions lose their access to affordable health care.

    On the other hand, try finding anyone in 1972 who knew what personal computers would do. Or anyone in 1989 who know what smartphones would do. Try telling someone in 1964 that a little company called Blue Ribbon Sports would be worth 19 billion by 2014.

    The American success stores of the last fifty years are the ones with little or no government regulation.

    This is not an accident.

    This is the free market.
