Female teacher solicited boys online for sex, cops say

http://www.sun-sentinel.com/news/palm-beach/fl-pompano-boca-teacher-sleepovers-20130823,0,5849954.story

A female instructor who worked at two South Florida schools this year is accused of using Facebook to proposition male teenage students to have sex and smoke marijuana with her, including a boy she praised for having an "amazing" body, authorities said Friday.

"I don't want you to fall in love with me but I don't want you to hit it and quit it either," the teacher, Stevie Glasspool, allegedly told one of her students, a 17-year-old boy, in a Facebook message, according to the Broward Sheriff's Office.

According to the agency, Glasspool, 31, of Boca Raton, also tried to entice him with other messages: "Your body is amazing," "I wish you were single," "I have marijuana for us to smoke," and "you will be graded on your performance."

Officials began investigating when that 17-year-old boy told his parents about the suggestive messages and they reported it to authorities.

difference, but that's unusual.

And yes, if she is trolling for boys, throw the book at her and put her under the jail.

Many years ago, my stepson (who didn't live with us) was seduced at age 15 by a 24-yr-old woman. It has done incalculable damage to him, not the least because a child was the result. When I, as the stepmom, called the police over it, they practically laughed in my face. I guess they considered the kid lucky. He wasn't, trust me.

It has nothing to do with being married or not. Likely the 17 year old had a girlfriend.

Clearly she should lose her job, but whether or not she should be prosecuted, and how severely, is touch and go, I think.

But there was no sex here so nothing to prosecute. The reported remarks she made on FB are not illegal.

Authorities say Steve Glasspool, thirty-one, had sex with at least four students, who ranged in age from fifteen to seventeen. They were enticed by Glasspool over Facebook with offers of pot, and encouraged to spend the night.
