A 28-year-old teacher at a North Carolina charter high school is accused of having sex with at least one male student.

Police began investigating Diana Leigh Farnell Sept. 10 after receiving a call about an inappropriate relationship between her and a 16-year-old student at Union Academy Charter School in Monroe, N.C., according to WSAV.

Court documents obtained by WSCO give the victim's age as 17. The station reported that the alleged sex between Farnell and the student occurred within the past year. The age of consent in North Carolina is 16, but the law prohibits sexual relationships between teachers and students in the same school.

Farnell was charged with one count of "sex offense with a student," according to WBTV.

City of Monroe spokesman Pete Hovanec told the station that police "interviewed students and ... Ms. Farnell and she admitted to the offense."

Farnell turned herself in Sept. 12, but police said that the investigation is ongoing, and more charges might be filed.

One student, whose identity was withheld, told WCCB that he noticed flirting between Farnell and certain students in his English class.

"When these certain boys would come in, she would start getting all lovey with them," the student told the station.

According to the Charlotte Observer, Farnell teaches English and creative writing at Union Academy, where she has been on staff for four years. Although her profile has been removed from the school's website, and a police report listed her as "unemployed," the school has not commented on whether Farnell has been fired from her position.

Bonus slide (in the link) of teachers that have had sex with students.
 
Lately it seems like whenever a teacher/student sex story gets posted to gaf it's always with a female teacher. Are the male teachers out there not keeping up with their female counterparts? Or is it only thread worthy when it's a female teacher?
 
At the age of 17, I'd be all over her. At the age of 25, I'd still be all over her.

I still don't understand why teachers do this though. Is it worth it? I'd say no.

Yeah. The other way around is gross and sad and has girls being taken advantage of. This way we live vicariously through this kid that had the dream!
 
I can imagine that more teachers out there get away with it if the male students don't start bragging and telling people.

These types of crimes are treated differently in the public eye. One is considered gross, disgusting, and despicable, while the other isn't all that bad, even if the ages are the exact same in both cases. Knowing this, it's not really a big surprise that one comes out a bit more than the other.

Might be the media placing a bigger emphasis on female teacher sex scandals. If you go through the slide show on huffington post that has around 40-ish different teachers involved in sex scandals, only 5 or so are male.

It's weird. I see the situations both only if it's consented sex and the students aren't really young. I remember hearing girls always talk about our male teachers in the same way as we talked about our female teachers that we were attracted to.
 
The more I think about it, the less I would have liked something like this to happen to me in high school. If some crazy, attractive 28 year old woman came on to me, she could have basically owned my soul.


"Spend all weekend watching your kids while you go out? Okay."

"Kill your ex-boyfriend for you? Okay."
 
In my high school I was certain that my math teacher was having an affair with a student,
The guy even had the audacity to pick her up and spin in around during class.

Also once a teacher (strangely, also teaching math) squeezed my ass in the lunch line, I'm not complaining, mind you, just saying.

And yes, this is true.
 
When I was 18 in my senior year of high school I remember some guys hitting on a teacher that was 25ish and her husband work at the school as the coach of the baseball team these guys played on. Needless to say he wasn't amused.
 
Thanks for volunteering!

For what? As a male teacher myself that would get me in a whole lot of trouble! lol. (except not really since I only teach English in Japan and have a bunch of grandmas for students urgh)

A few years after I graduated high school one of my female teachers got arrested for sex with a student. Except it was a female/female relationship! English teacher of course... So if Male/female relationships are the most deplorable I wonder how female/female ranks compared to female/male.

I'm guessing a lot of them get off on the power disparity, or have a fetish for very young guys.
 
I always wonder what teachers are thinking doing something like this. Throwing their future away alongside years of hard work and schooling getting into a teaching position.

Oh boy. lol.

Looking out for the innocence of children, or just jelly? Statutory hero, or "jerk who ruined it for the rest of us"?

There was an English teacher who got caught in a lesbian relationship in that slideshow. Garcia I think...from Texas. Either it's a small world, or that's your gal.

But public opinion will view a 28 y/o male with a 16 y/o female differently than the reverse, even if it was consensual. I think that male teachers tend to be more aware of this and actively try to distance themselves and not initiate anyway, since they know the outcome if they end up sleeping with one of their students.

Plus, talk is just that. It's nothing until action is taken. I talked about how hot my chem teacher was in high school, but it doesn't mean that I slept with her. Wish I did though, she was really hot and only 7 years older me at the time (18 and 25 at the time).
 
She deserves whatever punishment the law sees fit. There's enough available dick in the world for an attractive young woman in a position of power to be fucking her students.
