Connecticut high school teacher charged with sexually assaulting student

DANBURY POLICE DEPT
Kayla Mooney, 24, who teaches at Danbury High School, was arrested and charged with second-degree sexual assault and distributing alcohol to a minor.

"We are all very disappointed that this has happened to one of our faculty members," he said.

Perhaps even more shocking than Mooney's arrest, however, is that it's only the latest sexual misconduct charge against a southwest Connecticut teacher.

On Feb. 11 former Wilton public schools teacher and Sacred Heart University instructor Timothy Leonard was charged with fourth-degree sexual assault involving a 14-year-old boy.

Police said the 37-year-old was found in a movie theater parking lot with the teen after they engaged in an intimate act, the Fairfield Sun reported.

Former Bethel first-grade teacher Brian Stroh also resigned on Feb. 19 after charged with sexually abusing three children, ages 6, 9 and 11, the News Times reported.

A Connecticut high school teacher is accused of sexually assaulting a student and distributing alcohol to a minor — making the third sexually-related arrest of a teacher in the area since February.

Kayla Mooney, 24, who is on paid leave from Danbury High School, turned herself in Tuesday following a seven-week investigation, the News Times reported.

The first-year science teacher was charged with felony second-degree sexual assault and the misdemeanor alcohol charge.

Sal Pascarella, the superintendent of the city's schools, would not provide details about the allegations against Mooney, only telling the News Times that the alleged incident happened off campus late last year. VIA http://www.nydailynews.com/

Oklahoma teacher busted for nude texts with student: cops

An Oklahoma teacher faces sex crime charges after a former student’s parents uncovered a cache of her naked photos on their kid’s phone, authorities said.

Whitney Fetters, 28, traded at least 20 nudes with the 14-year-old boy in a string of X-rated texts, according to court documents.

Putnam City police issued an arrest warrant for the middle school Spanish teacher after the boy’s parents learned of the relationship and called the cops.

Fetters turned herself in on Wednesday and posted $10,000 bail, The Oklahoman reported.

The randy teacher began texting the boy two years ago when he was one of her students at Hefner Middle School, authorities said.

The messages turned dirty as he entered high school, according to court documents cited by ABC 13.

“Touching myself is fun,” Fetters wrote in one message, court documents said.

A sexy shot of the teacher in lingerie included the teasing message, “That’s all you get.”

Cops raided her house and confiscated her phone, computers and even the undergarments she allegedly modeled in photos, News 9 reported.

The boy had tried erasing messages and pictures when confrontated by his parents, but detectives were able to recover the erotic evidence, authorities said.

Fetters was planning an overnight hookup with her underage boyfriend before the kid’s parent and police intervened, cops said.

She faces charges of indecent exposure, lewd proposals to a child younger than 16 and soliciting sex with a minor.

Fetters was removed from the classroom after allegations surfaced, school officials said.
