Florida Teacher Accused Of Sex With 14-Year-Old Boy

Woman Faces Charges After Boy Makes Accusations

POSTED: 4:22 pm EDT June 24, 2004
UPDATED: 5:19 pm EDT June 24, 2004

TAMPA -- A Tampa-area middle school teacher is under arrest, accused of having sex with a student.

Reading teacher Debra Beasley LaFave, 23, is a newlywed who is accused of performing oral sex on a 14-year-old student at Greco Middle School twice in the past month.

LaFave (pictured left, in wedding photo) is being held in the Hillsborough County Jail on $15,000 bail.

The 2002 graduate of the University of South Florida was married 11 months ago.

Temple Terrace police said that LaFave was arrested at her home after the 14-year-old boy told his mother the allegations. LaFave was reportedly never the boy's teacher.

At her first court appearance, Judge W.R. Heinrich warned LaFave about the media attention on her.

"Don't talk," Heinrich said. "The press is here. They have cameras. They have print media, and they're going to take down everything that you would say. That would not be in your best interest."

LaFave's attorney, Fred Vollrath, said, "She has no prior arrest record. She's an outstanding member of the community. She's lived here all her life. We'll have to see what happens as we conduct the investigation."

Lafave's husband and parents accompanied the attorney to the courthouse.

Lafave has been placed on administrative leave and is expected to be suspended without pay at a school board meeting next month.

What a stupid kid. If I was 14 year old and had sex with my 23 year old hot teacher(I'm not saying the teacher in the article is hot), why would I tell my mom? :crazy:

Would you have the same attitude if it were a male teacher and a female student?

ObieX 06-29-2004 06:43 AM

If i were the student i would have nominated her for the teacher of the year award.

animosity 06-29-2004 06:56 AM

i bet the kid is full of shit. i dont see a 23 yr old married woman wanting to sex up a 14 yr old boy... but i suppose i could be wrong.

Depends if I'm a horny teenage girl and the male teacher was a handsome hunk.

losthellhound 06-29-2004 07:30 AM

I dont know.. sounds cooked up to me. More likely the kid is just trying to look good to the big kids

mystmarimatt 06-29-2004 08:10 AM

Well, obviously if true, it's wrong. But for that to actually happen to the kid?

It's the stuff porno is made of.

Averett 06-29-2004 08:11 AM

Society is fucked up.

It's oh so cool for a 14 year old boy to have sex with his hot 23 year old teacher, but if a 14 year old girl has sex with her hot 23 year old teacher well.... That guy is a sick pervert.

The boy maybe cool, but there's something definitely wrong with the woman wanting to give a hummer to a child. that's gotta be somewhat perverted

Not aruing with you...I can't, because...you're right.
But...that's the way it's viewed. I don't pretend to understand it, except as more of the "double standard". I'll contemplate it, while I forego the obligatory "Woot!! Go kid!".

SLITWILLIE 06-29-2004 08:47 AM

If it was true that is one stupid kid. When I was 13 my study hall teacher was 25 and married she let me feel her up. I never told my mom or anyone else didn't want to ruin a good thing. But my luck I think she got scared and nothing ever happend again. I still see this lady around town and she always turns RED in the face when I speak. She is married to a very rich ugly dick. Just think she could have had me a great looking broke dick HaHa

No surrender 06-29-2004 08:57 AM

News this morning said she was in the backseat of a car playing with the 14 yr old, while a 15 yr old friend drove around. Yikes. Hard to believe she is that stupid. Given that she is very attractive, the media is going to have a field day with this one. Perhaps should turn to the Long Island Lolita for some advice....

mikec 06-29-2004 09:00 AM

lucky kid!

and being the father of 2 girls, if it were the other way around I'd be mad as hell. now if I had a son, and he got a hummer from that teacher, I'd probably give him a beer.

society is fucked up, but that's the way it is.

DelayedReaction 06-29-2004 09:06 AM

Meh. She shouldn't have done it, but it's not that big of a deal to me. Was the husband really that bad in bed that a 14 y/o would be better?

mystmarimatt 06-29-2004 09:12 AM

I'll admit that society has a double standard about this topic, and, I think both are ultimately wrong.

However, i'm sure there are few men among us who never looked at a teacher at some point during their education with a lecherous twinkle in their eye.

Does she deserved to be punished?

Probably.

Does kid deserve a reprimand? That's up for you to decide. If he were my kid, I probably wouldn't be too happy with him.

But as a youth, I cannot honestly claim moral righteousness and condemn him for actions and decisions that I, if put in the same situation, might also make.

(On a sidenote, i wonder what happened to that teacher a few years back who got herself pregnant with the 12-year old kid?)

Blackthorn 06-29-2004 09:24 AM

I read the police report on this link and holy cow there was a lot more going on there than just a couple of hummers!! She's an attractive enough woman but whooooahl...what the FUCK was she thinking?

According to the affidavit--portions of which were redacted by investigators--Lafave told the boy that she was "turned on by the fact that having sexual relations with him was not allowed."
How is this any different from a male pedophile?


Holy crap, the sex in the car happened right down the road from my Grandparents place. Crazy!

Delvid 06-29-2004 09:30 AM

She is a hottie but what a stupid biatch.

water_boy1999 06-29-2004 10:02 AM

Yikes! We have a messed up society if we praise a 14 year old boy for having sex with hot teacher, yet condemn the act if it was a 14 year old girl. I recently posted a thread about a friend of mine who is now on the run for a very similar act just a few weeks ago. Previous to this event, I probably would have given kudos to the boy, but after this recent act of my friend, I have changed my views on the subject.

Thing is, when I was a kid, I had several hot teachers that I wanted to fuck. It is every young boy's dream to get in the pants of their hot teacher. What do you think wet dreams are made of? We always joked with our friends about wanting to do such and such with them, but never had the opportunity. So, on one hand, I see where some of your praise of the boy comes from.....you are living vicariously through him as you would have liked to be that kid many moons ago. Unfortunately, because of my own personal experience, I no longer feel the need to live vicariously through a kid.......

So it's wrong if it's consensual?

pig 06-29-2004 10:11 AM

Another side note - her sister was killed recently.
[url http://stpetersburgtimes.com/2004/06...ed_of_se.shtml[/url]

From what I understand, these are just allegations made against her, but if they're true she very well could have been going through some sort of emotional reaction to her sister's death. I'm not saying it would justify her actions, but it is an interesting side note...albeit it was two years ago, but still - if nothing else, bad time for that family.

primal 06-29-2004 11:02 AM

I remember being 14 and thinking that something like this would be the coolest thing that could ever happen to me. That's why people say go boy! Because we all know that 90% of 14 year old boys would be happy if any girl would have sex with them. I remember coping a feel on a teacher when I was 12. On the other hand if it was a girl, we know that generally 14 year old girls are not as compelled to have sex with anyone. Even when 14 year old girls have sex with 14 year old boys there is probably a certain amount of persuasion/cohersion being applied by the boy. That's why everyone feels like a girl is being taken advantage of. I really don't feel like that's a double standard. I know that if that teacher had come up to me when I was 14 that I would have shagged her rotten. And I'd still be happy about it to this day. I can't imagine to many women having that same outlook. Generally adolesecent boys and girls think of sex differently. Some of that difference is societies influence but a lot of it is hormonal.

Now as for the adult's involvement, I don't think it matters if it's a man or a woman they have problems. I do think that psychological treatment is a better alternative to jail for this women because I really doubt that much harm was done to the boy. She had no authority over him (she wasn't his teacher), she made no promises or threats, she just asked him if he wanted to have sex. I really don't think the boy is much of a victim here. He probably would have continued the relationship as long as he could. Remember he didn't tell his mom, they just got caught. If they had commited any other crime together (consenually with the same amount of cohersion) the boy would not be looked upon as a victim.

14 year olds need reading teachers?

I think the accusation sounds a bit incredible, considering the teacher. My feeling is that this student has a vendetta.

Yup.

1) It's illegal. I'm pretty sure the age of concent in Florida isn't 14.
2) She's in a position of authority
3) It's just fucking wrong.

She's not his teacher. I don't know what grade she teaches. When I was in 6th grade (12 years old) we still had a reading class (it was just English class but it was called Reading).

The police report states that the officers had the kid call up the teacher (while they listened in) and tell her that he was worried about their lack of condom use. The teacher admitted to having sex with him and told him not to worry about condoms. The police also had the kid arrange another meeting with the teacher and they arrested her at that meeting. So it really sounds like she did it.

Halx 06-29-2004 12:07 PM

Having wished I could ahve experienced something similar when I was that age, I gotta say that I wouldn't have told a soul!

Kind of like the Pamela Smart case except the boy she seduced told his mother rather than killing her husband

StephenSa 06-29-2004 12:33 PM

Right or wrong, looking at her I would have had sex with her at fourteen and never looked back! She on the other hand must have some sort of as yet unexplained instability to be sexually attracted to a fourteen year old boy. The "forbidden" aspect I can see turning one on as a concept but I'm not sure I see how a boy's body could be that physically attractive to her. I'm sure we'll hear a lot more about it in the news and an eventual poorly made television movie.
As for the double standard aspect, I agree it isn't right but I think I might have a handle on where it comes from as pertains to this situation. Reality or not, young girls around the age of 14 are still seen as naive, still innocent, perhaps easily coerced or manipulated and physically less able to defend themselves. Boys of 14 however are seen as being immature yet guided by hormones that drive them sexually. They are also seen as being able to defend themselves and being physically stronger than girls or even an older woman. Therefore it is perceived that any girl with an older man is being taken advantage of and any boy with an older woman is just following instinct and taking advantage of the situation. The rational being that as a young "man" he could stop the situation at any time through his physical strength while the young girl might not. Not saying its right, but the double standard is there.

denim 06-29-2004 12:55 PM

According to the CNN.com article, both kids were able to describe the teacher's physical markings, such as birthmarks. Doesn't sound good for the adult, nope.

World's King 06-29-2004 12:56 PM

How much of a loser 23yr old blonde girl do you have to be that you can't get laid unless you take advantage of a 14yr old?

It's not like she's ugly or anything... I'd hit it I was drunk in a bar.

so are you trying to say that it should be considered cool for the 14 year old girl and 23 year old teacher situation, too? :p

It was his personal opinion, based on his sex being male and the techer being female. Let's not be too eager to pounce on his odd comment.

I hope the truth comes out, whatever it is... the sad thing is, you never really live an accusation down. People go through hell over stuff like this.

Jam 06-29-2004 03:07 PM

stupid bitch... shes married and everything

that being said if i were 14 and she were my teacher id definetly hit that.

More Photos of Debra Lafave

There are even a couple of her wedding photos, but I had to draw the line there. It would too much in poor taste to do so. But if you’re crafty enough, google might help you find them.
