Former teacher didn't know sex with her student was illegal, court told

A former Yass High School teacher who admitted having sex with a student has been found not guilty of two other sexual offences alleged to have occurred during the same incident.Lee Brown, 60, pleaded guilty to one count of sexual intercourse without consent, but challenged other charges

She contested the account by the former student about an encounter in the shed of her Canberra home more than a decade ago, when the teenage girl was staying overnight with another friend.At the time Brown was a teacher at Yass High School and the teenager was a student at the school.She said she was sitting on a couch in the shed at Brown's home when they started kissing.She told the court that had angered Brown, who allegedly said: "What did you expect? You sat yourself astride me.

She said the encounter was the first sexual activity between the pair, in a relationship that continued when the girl left school. "I had to resign or be terminated and my file was [labelled] never to be employed, which is fair enough," she said.She also moved from Yass to nearby Gundaroo.

A teacher who is so ignorant they don't know that sex with a minor is illegal shouldn't be teaching anything.

And the pigs can fly too...

This discribes the teachers In the schools.Deceitful, corrupt, biased and we need to defund the teachers, bust their unions, dismantle tenure. Start fresh. More schooling for teachers and testing to see if they need additional schooling or are qualified for that year.

Clear sign of a selfish and self centered person.

Product of bad education.

That's what they all say.

How was she found not guilty?! It is IRRELEVANT she didn't know sex with a student was illegal (dubious), it is IRRELEVANT the student initiated the if encounter, she was an adult in a position of authority and trust which she abused. Both statutory and out and out rape.

The old nswpolice defense.

Nice choice of heading. If it were a man ABC might say instead, 'Former disgraced male teacher rapes his student despite cries of 'No'!'. Good old ABC and its doctrined agenda.

🤯🤯🤯🤯

She was 'doing' a sex education class!

'updated 1h ago' After i had to post her bloody picture here and force your hand. No doubt others did elsewhere too. Better late than never... i suppose.

Young Male Patriots usually have sex with their school’s female teachers. It is in our nature to be the best in the class.

Well, to be fair, the police get away with this lie

I think that teacher knew exactly what was going on and no teacher would possibly think it was ok. And apart from that no means no.

I’m sure the teacher wouldn’t have engaged if somebody had told her that “that sort of thing was frowned upon”. - George Costanza.

😳

That’s a chick?

FFS

didnt pay attention in Teaching 101 very encouraging

Should just say she is from Neverland

How could someone that stupid be a teacher?

Huh?🥺

Not very bright obviously eh!

BAD TEACHER! DEFUND ALL SCHOOLS!!!!

You can't make this stuff up.

If it happened 50 years ago it would still be dubious but 10 years ago When was the Royal Commission? Seriously

wtf?

Females aren't used to repercussions

THATS RAPE.

My question is why did she have the student have sleep over at her house. That alone indicates inappropriate student-teacher relationship.

Wonder what subject at Uni it is taught to have sex with your students while studying to become a teacher.

“Sexual intercourse without consent” - I’m pretty sure there’s a name for that. 🤔

TweetCorrineB Easy enough mistake to make, you'd think. No punishment required here, your honour.

So many women teachers rape students. Seems like a new story every week.

Justits justice

This is the rock spider.

When your sick, twisted, degenerate crime is so rare that you’re genuinely unaware that it’s against the law. This is a predator. Throw. Away. The. Key.

'I was having a bad day' ... WTF

Bullocks. She's a pedo and should get the same name.. shame and face time as the rest. No way in hell did she think screwing kids was ok. Such a baldfaced lie. Far worse that she's a teacher. Where's her photo on the page? She's admitted it put it up.

yeah ok pull the other leg LOL

😂😂😂 Bullshit!

Statues of former PMs defaced at BallaratPolice are investigating the defacing of two statues at Ballarat after monuments of two former Australian prime minister's were sprawled with graffiti. I heard a dog pissed on this one Hey Amy Johnson. “Any normal person” would be justified in thinking these two men to be two of the nastiest bastards to ever walk the earth. “Any normal person” would be ashamed to have statue of them in their town. So these Communist pigs, who see racism in every white face but their own, deface Tony Abbott’s statue; a man who fights fires with the CFA and actually spends time in at risk indigenous communities building houses and helping out. This is not about racism clearly, and never was.

What Facebook doesn’t want you to knowSocial media companies are facing scrutiny about how they police our opinions, but there’s a simple trick that would make them sick if they knew we’d told you. I was going to let this one slide because I agree with the premise of the article but.... no. Jack, please explain to me how either Alex Jones or Milo are 'far-right'. Even better, why don't you just explain what you think 'far-right' actually means. Except hosting companies won't tolerate hate speech either. Maybe you should start a hosting company? Don't end up this type of situation? (the others are interesting as well)
