Maintaining a teaching certificate in Alabama and many other states carries the legal obligation to not have a romantic relationship with a student.
It’s constitutional because it is a right/privilege that is deliberately waived as a condition for employment in an Alabama public school.
The constitutionality hinges on the poor wording. The law, as it’s written, says “school employee,” and doesn’t limit that in any way - by job title, type of school, or even location. So, a 22 year old bus driver in Mobile is committing a felony by having a relationship with an 18 year old senior in Huntsville, which is asinine. There was a case a few years ago in which the judge ruled the law unconstitutional, but that ruling was overturned during the appeal. It needs to be tossed and rewritten. It’s an incredibly weak law as it stands, because of the ambiguity, and that’s why the majority of these cases get tossed out.
Law ruled unconstitutional
quote:
"The statute at hands embeds an irrebuttable presumption that any sexual encounter between an employee of any school and any student in the state is conclusively the result of a misuse of authority," the judge wrote. Thompson said the law is problematic because it doesn't consider whether the school employee and student are in the same class, school or school system.

Was she made head cheerleader because she is fat and that’s the thing to do now?

That girl is the very definition of pre-fat. She will be 200+ after she pops out her first Gump kid.

Just as an FYI..... the link above states the following:

LSU put together an internal investigation in 2013 to look into allegations that Miles sexually harassed and made sexist comments about student workers. USA TODAY reported an outside law firm’s investigation deemed he acted improperly, but LSU never appeared to punish its head football coach.

Bonus points to the Bama fan who can identify what plaque on the Walk of Champions the (former) couple is standing next to.
Gonna need the pic date since the plaques were moved a few years back to make more room for new ones.

I wonder if the people who designed the Walk of Champions back in 2006 realized the kinda hell they were going to put the maintenance crew through if somebody were to come along and start winning NCs every 2.5 years?

We've talked about that here already, why are you trying to deflect from the topic at hand?

You're going to need to provide some stats to support this statement when it comes to Alabama.
Based on my experience (which was 18 years with a prosecuting agency), most take a plea to avoid the embarrassment of a trial.

There were 3 in Tuscaloosa County alone that were tossed 2015-2017, two others tossed around that time frame - cited in the article I posted. There have been many more. I’ll provide links in just a bit. In the air currently.
