Meagan Gordon, 22, substitute teacher, Sussex Technical High School, Georgetown DE

Meagan Gordon was charged for allegedly showing nude photos of herself to a 15-year-old student. The student's mother had filed a complaint with school officials because she suspected that her son was text messaging with a teacher at the school. Allegedly the student swiped the teacher's cell phone, and went to the restroom to view the photos on her phone. The teacher of course had nude photos of herself on the phone (who doesn't?). No word on what the student did to himself while in the restroom. After finishing up in the lavatory (I really hope he washed his hands), the student returned the phone. Later on in class, the teacher again allowed the student to check out the pictures of her goodies, and they exchanged cell phone numbers, etc.

Sherri Baffa, 36, Math teacher, Sullivan East High School, Bluff City TN

Sherri Baffa has been arrested on seven counts of sexual exploitation of a minor. The police received an initial report of the alleged crimes in May of this year. Evidence includes explicit photos of an adult female and juvenile male, dated 2007. Police identified the victim as 16-years-old at the time of the alleged offenses. Allegedly the indictment describes seven different incidents that allegedly took place in February 2007.

The indictments against Baffa allege she, “did unlawfully, knowingly and feloniously promote, employ, use, assist, transport or permit a minor to participate in the performance of, or in the production of, acts or material which includes the minor engaging in sexual activity.”

She is expected in back court on September 30.

Update Dec 5 2011:  Evidently the photos that allegedly show the teacher having sex with a 16 year old male were provided to police by the teacher's former husband.  The student is denying that it is him in the photos.  And Sherri Baffa is denying that she had any type of sexual relationship with the boy, implying the pictures were photoshopped or something.  The case was reset for Feb 15.

Update Feb 16 2012: Sheeri Baffa appeared in court briefly, and the case was again reset to Apr 27 at the request of Sullivan County Assistant Public Defender Andrew Gibbons.

This case is starting to smell fishy to me. The EX-Husband finds the pictures 4 years later? Either the pictures are real, or they were photoshopped. An expert could settle this matter in one day. Five months since the arrest, and no one knows if the evidence is real or not? Why are the authorities in Johnson County taking months and months on this? Is there any other evidence?
