TEACHER ACCIDENTLY DISTRIBUTES HER SEX TAPE TO
STUDENTS
An elementary school teacher in Elk Grove,
California is fighting to save her job after accidentally
distributing a home made sex tape to her fifth grade class.
Crystal Defanti, a teacher at Isabelle Jackson
Elementary school in Elk Grove, handed her 10 and 11-year-old
students a DVD that she believed was full of memories of the
school year as they went on summer holiday. But what the DVD
also included was a six-second sequence involving herself on a
sofa in the final cut.
Parents of the pupils were horrified when they
sat down to watch the DVD with their kids. The DVD includes a
scene with the children in a classroom sharing stories.
“It goes from my son straight to her on the
couch,” said the father of a Defani student. “My son’s reaction
was, ‘Dad, is that Ms Defanti?’ We were up until midnight doing
the birds and bees.”
Defanti, 29, called parents the next day, crying
and apologizing. The dad added: “All she could say was that
there had been a horrible mix-up.”
The Elk Grove Unified School District says they
are investigating the matter. But legal experts say it’s
unlikely that the teacher will lose her job. Ken Rosenfeld, a
lawyer based in nearby Sacramento, said: “It’s stupid but it’s
not a crime. “Is it something that she should be disciplined
for? Absolutely, but fired for? “She didn’t intend for this to
happen.”
School officials say a new, cleaned-up DVD will
be sent to pupils.
