Kelsey Peterson is a 25 year old former eighth grade teacher from Omaha, Nebraska. In one of the more sensational teacher sex scandals I have ever seen, she is accused of kidnapping a thirteen year old boy and taking him to Mexico, where she was apprehended on November 2.
The boy was forced to stay in Mexico due to being an illegal immigrant. Not entirely sure what his family situation is, but hopefully he’s not stuck in Mexico with his immediate family still back in Omaha, cause you know, that would kind of suck.
The boy didn’t describe Peterson as his girlfriend, but did admit to having sex with her multiple times. Not to be crass, but if you look at the picture up above you might be able to see why. Not really a braggable offense there, apart from her being his teacher and all.
Peterson plead not guilty yesterday in federal court to “transporting a minor to engage in sexual activity”. She is being charged in both federal and state court of different things, so it will be interesting to see who ultimately gets their hands on her. Her main defense at this point is apparently that the boy might not really be 13. Her attorney is disputing the validity of his Mexican birth certificate.
She also probably has a psychological defense since the federal prosecutor told the judge yesterday that Peterson has told police that she is “in love with the boy and said she was not sure she would do anything differently”.

I remember this story when it came out in the news, I was telling my husband that this women are so dumb because they just get a little of pleasure and then it goes to shit because there the ones that are paying the price in prison and the boys there sleeping with are living the party life (free) thats kind of stupid because the kids not even support them when its time to go to court and testify, but whatever hopefully they would realize it when they come out.
