Teachers connect with students. And though the notes do seem iffy out of context , as a teacher I must say...you don't spend your days interacting thinking would a jury consider this and indication of guilt. Now that I look back there probably are some interactions...hugs, copliments, gifts etc...that although truly harmless, would be used against me I am certain if a student decided to let ther imagination and mouth go to far...these guys got in a way over their head...the lie took on a life of its own and now she's paying. A note does not indicate sexual conduct....trust me. As far as her composure...Dr. Phil and that boy are lucky she didn't do exactly what I would have done which is reach over and slap the lies out of his mouth for putting her family in danger of loosing a mother and a wife. Shame on that punk.
