Debra Lafave arrested again; does not offer oral sex to cop in exchange for release

debra lafave mug shotWord is that Debra Lafave was arrested again. If you don’t recall, she was the teacher in Tampa that had an ongoing sexual relationship with a 14 yr old student.

One time, in an SUV that his 15 yr old cousin drove.

So, she received house arrest and probation, no more teaching, no more contact with anyone under 18. Hey, if it was guy having sex with a 14 yr old girl rather than an insanely (literally) hot young blond woman, he’d have done a little time in a cell with a guy that dressed him up like a kewpie doll.

But whatever. Double-standards abound for a reason, I suppose.

So, she gets arrested again. Oh my! What did she do? Fondle a football player? Kick-it with a cross-country runner? I know, she was digging on a dodgeballer, right?

Nope. She talked to a 17 yr old female coworker about sex.

If that’s an arrestable offense and I’m her, I cut my tongue out. How is anyone supposed to go through life without talking to a coworker?

Of course, I suppose one could argue that she shouldn’t have taken a job where minors might also be employed. I’m just saying.

Update:

Debra Lafave’s probation officer’s case notes can be downloaded here. One excerpt makes me wonder:

lafave case notes

What’s redacted? The only time I would expect to see a redaction would be in cases where a minor would be identified, or a privacy issue related to a medical condition.

Hmmmm…

  2. Since part of her probation was to not be around minors wouldn’t it behoove her to know if minors were working with her? Oh but wait that would take some thinking on her part and on the part of her probation officer and her lawyer too…thinking, Debra Lafave, lawyer. I’ll leave the rest to you.

    And let’s not forget why she didn’t get jail time. Ah the law it’s a wonderful thing.

  8. She can control where she works and who she talks to, especially about personal things. Don’t excuse it just because she’s sexy.

  12. Hey, if I were being honest here, and I wasn’t married, and I weighed about 100 lbs less, and was better looking, and 10 yrs younger… I might take her to dinner and a movie… ;-)

  20. @ Teacher - no she can’t control who the restaurant hires but if you’re on probation wouldn’t you do something to keep your butt out of jail?

    @ Tim - Be nice now.

  24. While I’m normally rather unrelenting when it comes to child exploitation of any kind, this new case is ridiculous.

    Those on parole are normally expected to report employment changes to the parole officer, especially while under house arrest. Since officials in this case were aware of Debra’s employment, part of the blame belongs to them. Maybe all of it.

    Just about everyone knows that restaurants regularly recruit teenagers to staff their establishments. How does one work side by side with a minor without establishing contact?

    Restauraunt employees are expected to communicate and work as a team. Waitresses, hostesses, kitchen employees and management are always communicating with each other in order to expedite hot food and cleanliness expectations of the customer.

    This case is a sham, as it would appear at this point that parole officials are either dumber than a rock, unrealistic in their expectations, or simply fell asleep at the wheel.

    The Parole Officer could have rejected this employment arrangement altogether, knowing that contact with minors was an unrealistic expectation of this kind of employment. Instead, thousands upon thousands of tax dollars will be spent prosecuting a case where the arrangements were dubious from the start.
