ALEXANDRIA, Virginia -- A student at Fauquier County Elementary School has been sentenced to 2 years in reform school for producing child pornography by filming himself engaging in sexual activity with a school teacher.
The child, whose name was not released because he is under age, filmed himself having sex with thirty-year-old Mary C. Howe, a teacher at Fauquer County Elementary School. He was convicted at a bench trial earlier this year. The child seduced Howe and used a video camera on multiple occasions to document sexual activity between himself and the teacher.
The child reportedly plied Howe with alcohol and filmed some of the sex acts at the school. Howe claimed that she tried everything possible to escape the child, but was over-powered repeatedly.
The minors defense lawyer, Johnnie Cochran Jr., [1] called the crime an aberration and said, "something snapped! He figured it was better than selling lemonade. I mean, he sold 6.3 million downloads at a dollar a pop! How do you think he’s paying for me?"
The term of 2 years was less than what prosecutors sought, but more than the mandatory minimum of 1 year.
The jury acquitted the victim, letting Howe off with a verbal reprimand, and ordered her to carry “Mace” tear gas aerosol spray for self-defense against predatory students.
Separately, a gallows-humor commentator on a radio talk show out of Boston had only two reactions when this story emerged: (1) I need to see a photo of the victim before I render my verdict! and (2) Where were teachers like this when I was in school?!
