The more and more I read this, the more I realize how much my high school years sucked.

Yeah it's true. When accused of child molestation the accuser can change their story multiple times based on the latest coaching they received and you can't even cross examine. No specifics have to really be proven. Just play a recording of the accusation or have them repeat back to the jury what the prosecutor is leading them to say. Without physical evidence, it is all about the emotions of the jury. It isn't justice. It is a dangerous precedent. But you see, the precedent was set and used against men. Now a woman is hoping for special treatment. Well, too bad. Womp womp.

OMG

This motion is so quasi constitutional that it should be immediately nul prosed and that poor person should be left to go.

And all this time errybaddy sayin' nothing to any of this. Right. If they have two locations where the 'underage sex took place', they got her nailed (no pun intended).

Dream on with your bad self, 3:00. Get back to drafting wills.

I'm not a criminal defense attorney, but it seems to me she makes a good point about not being able to prepare an alibi defense without more specific dates for the alleged criminal acts.

Side note: It looks like it was about a year old before the charges were even brought, and the kid was 17 at the time of the (alleged) acts. Thanks Mom.

3:23 PM, yes they can name locations but what does that have to do with the price of tea in China? In other words, that still doesn't make a potentially bogus claim any more believable. Maybe they could also throw in some bogus details that never happened as well ... like she wore a smoke-colored teddy and he asked her the difference between white and red wine.

I assume the parents of the boy want her prosecuted because otherwise, he would have been a virgin when he got married in about 10 years but she spoiled it.

Seriously, in this day-in-age, what are the odds that an athletic young male swim team member isn't having sex on a regular basis? He is literally "swimming in it". Ha, get it?

If I was on the jury, I could not in good conscience convict this woman if he even acted like he wanted to. When I was his age, there wasn't enough female attention to go around. I was having vigorous relations with a woman in her 40's well before I was 18. 30+ years later, I am still thankful for that. These stories make me sick now as I thought I did not suffer from envy but apparently I do.

Advice to a Friend on Choosing a Mistress (1745)
June 25, 1745
My dear Friend,
I know of no Medicine fit to diminish the violent natural Inclinations you mention; and if I did, I think I should not communicate it to you. Marriage is the proper Remedy. It is the most natural State of Man, and therefore the State in which you are most likely to find solid Happiness. Your Reasons against entring into it at present, appear to me not well-founded. The circumstantial Advantages you have in View by postponing it, are not only uncertain, but they are small in comparison with that of the Thing itself, the being married and settled. It is the Man and Woman united that make the compleat human Being. Separate, she wants his Force of Body and Strength of Reason; he, her Softness, Sensibility and acute Discernment. Together they are more likely to succeed in the World. A single Man has not nearly the Value he would have in that State of Union. He is an incomplete Animal. He resembles the odd Half of a Pair of Scissars. If you get a prudent healthy Wife, your Industry in your Profession, with her good Œconomy, will be a Fortune sufficient.
But if you will not take this Counsel, and persist in thinking a Commerce with the Sex inevitable, then I repeat my former Advice, that in all your Amours you should prefer old Women to young ones. You call this a Paradox, and demand my Reasons. They are these:
Because as they have more Knowledge of the World and their Minds are better stor’d with Observations, their Conversation is more improving and more lastingly agreable.
Because when Women cease to be handsome, they study to be good. To maintain their Influence over Men, they supply the Diminution of Beauty by an Augmentation of Utility. They learn to do a 1000 Services small and great, and are the most tender and useful of all Friends when you are sick. Thus they continue amiable. And hence there is hardly such a thing to be found as an old Woman who is not a good Woman.
Because there is no hazard of Children, which irregularly produc’d may be attended with much Inconvenience.
Because thro’ more Experience, they are more prudent and discreet in conducting an Intrigue to prevent Suspicion. The Commerce with them is therefore safer with regard to your Reputation. And with regard to theirs, if the Affair should happen to be known, considerate People might be rather inclin’d to excuse an old Woman who would kindly take care of a young Man, form his Manners by her good Counsels, and prevent his ruining his Health and Fortune among mercenary Prostitutes.
Because in every Animal that walks upright, the Deficiency of the Fluids that fill the Muscles appears first in the highest Part: The Face first grows lank and wrinkled; then the Neck; then the Breast and Arms; the lower Parts continuing to the last as plump as ever: So that covering all above with a Basket, and regarding only what is below the Girdle, it is impossible of two Women to know an old from a young one. And as in the dark all Cats are grey, the Pleasure of corporal Enjoyment with an old Woman is at least equal, and frequently superior, every Knack being by Practice capable of Improvement.
Because the Sin is less. The debauching a Virgin may be her Ruin, and make her for Life unhappy.
Because the Compunction is less. The having made a young Girl miserable may give you frequent bitter Reflections; none of which can attend the making an old Woman happy.
8[thly and Lastly] They are so grateful!!
Thus much for my Paradox. But still I advise you to marry directly; being sincerely Your affectionate Friend.

5:37, I had to look it up to find out that the letter you posted was written by Ben Franklin (the guy on the $100 bill). His logic and reasoning has led to question a few things I've been pondering lately. Thanks

I’m glad we didn’t have cell phones in school because all of our teachers would be in jail. Hell we taught them at night and they taught us during the day...

Sleuth it out JJ readers. Who is the new address? Did it at her house, but what’s the new address? HIS?

The Springhill address is her home. The Hidden Hills Cove address belongs to Mandy M. Johnson per county record.

At least one "victim" has a perpetual smile, serious bragging rights, and memories that will last a lifetime.

I doubt that his father is actually upset, but he has to go alone with the old lady who wants to protect her "little boy's virtue," otherwise he will get cut off.

Every school has a Mrs. Robinson, but the challenge is being the chosen one.

Johnson is a former Hartfield teacher. Also a very close friend of Reis. The plot thickens.

God there’s some sickos on here. Some of you horn dogs need to be neutered. Obviously in the old days, you thought it was ok to mate with children, but that isn’t the case anymore. Deal with it boomers.

I guess I am old school. Back in my day all our women teachers in Junior and Senior high schools were old spinsters. Just as well, I would hate to fail them in the bedroom and on my report card too.

The prosecutors are using the term child pretty loosely here. I can understand not knowing dates when the kid is young, but this kid was at least 17 years old, and on predictable school and team schedules. If he is saying he had sex with this lady twice at two very specific locations, then why is the prosecutor not narrowing the date range down a bit. The only reason is that the story must have some big holes in it, and the best way to convict an innocent person is to be vague about the crime.
Shame on the DA for not providing a bit more detail on dates, this is either lazy or dishonest.

You should be a detective, 10:25. Do you by-chance drive an old Volvo?
