Topic : 06/13 Teacher Sex Scandal, Part 2

she is guilty of something, with her students and their is more on this then you know.

she attack him on the small subjects, did not confront him on the big ones, for example car lights are little

things. why not ask him how did i get my hand donwn your pants, or was your pants taken down etc.

these are what you go after not the small things, you only do this when you are lying and trying to coverup.

she didn't have the right emotions for someone who is suppose to be a victim at a scandle of this.

If this was a man you would think different.

  Whether she did anything sexually with these children (i use the word children because that's what they were. They were not young men in my opinion.) isn't for me to judge. In this day in age i fully understand anything is possible, so unless she admits it, she won't be found guilty.  Does this mean i trust her?  The answer to that is NO!  The reason i say this is because she was consistently unprofessional.  It is her job to set boundries as a professional teacher.  What kind of boundries did she have?  She had no problem giving hormone driven students of the opposite sex a ride home.  She also had no problem calling those same students to help move a piano, disregarding the fact that pianos are extremely heavy and i should know because i am mover, into her home.  Nothing stopped her from writing notes to the same student and to make it worse they were in "code" whatever that means.  Finally,  when has anyone deemed it approapraite for male students to spend the night at a teacher's house who is of the opposite sex, or even the same sex? Dr. Phill didn't elaborate on that to much.  This teacher clearly does not know how to set and maintain boundries between teacher and student.  The lack of boundries forces me to look at her more like a student then a teacher.  So, did she do anything wrong? Yes, she created personal relationships with these students outside of school, which promoted poor decision making.  She put herself, her family, the students, and the parents of the students at risk by allowing these students to spend the night at her house WITHOUT PARENTAL CONSENT!   Again, why no one elaborated on that confuses me! She put herself in multiple one-on-one situations with these students making her liable for anything that could physically happen to them.(i use the word "physically" in a general way)   So,why? Why did these students have to be apart of these situations?  I mean, a 13 year old kid moving a piano! That's what made me mad! That is just not smart and i would never allow that!  I don't think that kid should be moving pianos now! So, with all that said, do i think she did anything with these students?  Again, i can't be the one to judge, but it would not surprise me AT ALL if she did.

  And as far as her marrying and older former teacher goes.  The only thing that proves is that she is willing to step out of her generation and into others to get what she wants, which could be younger and we all know that is possible!

Her lawyer did advise her not to take the polygraph test on the show.

I do not think Dr. Phil pussyfooted around with his opinion of the teacher.  He did not have the evidence to make a judgement because of the polygraph tests that the boys took. I wish Joelle also would have consented to take the test. If there is nothing to hide, do it to clear yourself.

I don't believe these boys made ALL of this up. There were too many details about the incidents. BUT, those coded notes that she wrote to Matt made me really question her innocence.

Those notes are the most puzzling to me. I really have my doubts about who to believe. I feel Dr. Phil probably saw through body language and other factors that made her look somewhat guilty. That is the way I felt. I can't imagine why Matt would come on the show and face her if there was no truth to be told.
