I know most of you hate lawyers but ....

just read the entire thing

i agree the girl is cute. i feel sorry for his first wife though. seems like she had no idea what was going on and this came right out of the-blue.

pretty wild story!

That's not a great reason to get married. What a sleaze. I feel sorry for the little girl.

Everyone hates lawyers until they need one.

I'm personally on the fence regarding the ability of a 16 or 17 year old to give consent. Some of you live in states where the age of consent is 16. Alabama used to be 14, although that may have changed.

That said, I do frown on teacher - student relationships. I'm not saying I never fucked a former student when I was a TA. But I waited until final grades were submitted to avoid any impropriety. The guy is a sleazeball, but perhaps not a criminal sleaze. His son reminds me of Ted from Bill and Teds excellent adevnture.

Oh Great. Just what I need. An attorney that wants me to marry a stripper. :)

Many high school girls can look hot and are built. But as a teacher you have to be professional and not do or say anything that can be misconstrued as inappropriate. As bad as things could be for a boss sexually harassing a underling, your life is over if you mess with an underage student. This guy found a loophole but he may not be out of the woods.

This should not be illegal to begin with. It's not like the guy had sex with a 10 year old. The girl was 18 and the relationship was consensual. Now they have married. How would putting the guy in jail help anyone?

^^^I'm pretty sure most parents do not want their daughters to have sex with the teacher. It's wrong.

"I know most everybody here professes to hate lawyers." I'm pretty sure there's no evidence to back that up. (In general, TUSCL members don't subscribe to wild generalizations like "All strippers are whores" or "All lawyers are whores" or "All lawyers suck" or "All stripper suck lawyers.") Nor is there evidence to back up the assumption that the lawyer came up with the genius idea of the marriage. Lots of people know that in most jurisdictions one can't be forced to testify against one's spouse.

I will make a slight amendment to my oft voiced disgust for lawyers. I have led my life (so far) with no need for the services of a criminal lawyer so I must, in fairness, exclude criminal lawyers from all feelings that I have previously expressed about lawyers.

However, I will not change a single word of anything that I have expressed about the lawyers that I have dealt with in my long business career. Taxation, contracts, wills, estates, property transactions, insurance, oil leases, employment, family matters, etc. In all instances of any civil matter where I have been involved with a lawyer I have been poorly served, leaving me dissatisfied and often aggrieved.

I have said before that I am a big fan of the 'final offer' system of arbitration for settling disputes and I have used it whenever it has been available to me. I have had disputes settled by a single arbitrator and by a three-personal panel of arbitrators. Interestingly, only one of the arbitrators that I have faced has been a lawyer. The two most diligent arbitrators that I have ever faced were an interesting pair. One was an ex-shop steward from a postal workers union and the other was a retired university physics professor.

WTF - someone tell that girl ASAP she could make more money stripping!!!!!

Jack - doesn't matter if they are 18, from a school perspective they are off limits while they are still a student. Also, it doesn't state when she turned 18 so this relationship may have started before she turned 18.
Once they are out of school, dynamics change.

Well farmerart I'm not going to overcome the impressions created by your experiences I don't think. However, like every profession, there are good and bad lawyers. The good ones cost a fortune but are worth it if you have a lot at stake.

Earl, obviously I can't definitively prove that a lawyer came up with this strategy. But I know enough about the law to be pretty confident that a lawyer likely came up with the strategy or at least endorsed it. As for attitudes about lawyers on tuscl, all I can comment on is what I read. Lawyers are almost universally referred to on tuscl as being on the same level as ROBs, except not as honest.

rh48hr (weird name by the way) is correct as a legal matter but philosophically I agree with Jack.

Was she 18 when they first got together?

Regardless, a highschool teacher shouldn't fuck their student no matter what the ages are. If we require laws to keep that from happening so be it.

I don't hate ALL lawyers. Some of them make great shark bait when you cut them up into little pieces for chum.

18 is okay by me but Braces? No way! I got head ,on the side, once from a girl with braves and I had so ripped up I had to fake a cover story of getting my dick caught in my zipper while I was drunk. Didn't need a lawyer for that one .
