Former Wantagh high school teacher Heather Kennedy had been charged with having sex with 16-year-old student back in March, but now Newsday reports Kenney will face "five new charges of statutory rape charges." Someone tipped investigators, who found out the 25-year-old was still seeing the boy, apparently having sex with him five times since she pleaded guilty last month. Kennedy, who was awaiting sentencing for the first set of charges, is supposed to be arraigned today.




nice
can't say she isn't persistent. what would happen if it were a male teacher and a 16-yr-old female student? where's the public outrage? where's rev. al? where's the beef?
Who's informing the cops of these trysts?
Hey, what's a girl in the big city to do?
She couldn't wait a year till he was legal?

She is not that bad looking as well.
Legal age should be lowered.
I still don't understand how this is rape when both people consent to the act. America is full of prudes!
Who is ratting out these awesome teachers and where were they when I was in school? It's a sad day in America when our young men are made of such weak stuff that they can't appreciate sex with an attractive older woman. Sad indeed.
Where are this kid's parents?
This is happening all over the country. Go to www.schoolteachernews.com and click on the Scandal page. They have documented over 285 of these types is incidents since just the beginning of 2008.
If they're still doing it, he obviously likes it. Let 'em go, already. In many other countries 16 is old enough. The US needs to get a life.

Damn Kennedys.

No legislator is ever, ever going to lower the age of consent though. Who campaigns on the promise to allow adults to have sex with 16 year olds?
If a female teacher has sex with a young male it's okay. If a male teacher has sex with a young female it's not okay. Is that hypocritical to say? No. Why is that? just because. Women need more bathrooms then men. It's just one of those things. Men are pre-wired for sex at an earlier age. This is one of those things where social and behavioral sciences don't mesh with the law.
"In many other countries 16 is old enough. The US needs to get a life."
In many states in the US "16 is old enough." In some, the age is higher than New York's 17. There is no federal law regarding age of consent.
Eww, 16 year old boys are so gross! They don't get hot until 18 anyways, what's with this lady?
She's still not that hot, but I'd hit it.
The age of consent varies from state to state. In some places it's 14. The variation is weird.
I would have hit it when I was 16.
I think 16 is old enough, but the teacher/student aspect makes me a tad uneasy. I'd be pissed if some teacher was screwing my kid, that's for sure.
I don't know what you guys are looking at but she's plain jane all the way. Still the issue is he's 16, a minor.

Lol ... The wonder in life ...
bet the tipster didn't get any!
The mugshot should have been taken a step back.
So, when they date, does she have to pay for everything? Or would his allowance cover the motel room?
I don't get it a guy can't get raped by a female.
Obviously: I would have killed to shag a teacher when I was 16.
@matty: It's "I got it bad, I'm hot for teacher"
She's got that "just made it down the stairs with the clothes hamper" look. You people are sick! He should have to write "I must stick to fingering girls my own age" 500 times on the chalkboard.
Damn kids today....don't know when to keep their mouths shot and let a good thing roll!!!
And yes, in many other states, this is legal. No double standard there....
I think it's disgusting. Teachers are supposed to care for kids, not molest them. I think I'd rather die than have any sort of sexual contact with a student. It's just wrong. Not to mention, teen-age boys are gross, unless you're a teen-age girl I reckon. :p
You get my vote, AggieAngst.
I know too many adults who were molested as children and most of them are messed up forever. It's wrong to force that kind of contact on someone who isn't emotionally mature enough to handle it.
