Mary Kay Letourneau's lawyer, David Gehrke, told multiple news outlets Letourneau died Tuesday of cancer.

SEATTLE — Mary Kay Letourneau, who married her former sixth-grade student after she was convicted for raping him, has died. She was 58.

Letourneau was a married mother of four having difficulties with her marriage in 1996 when Vili Fualaau was a precocious 12-year-old in Letourneau's class at Shorewood Elementary in Burien, a south Seattle suburb. Letourneau, then 34, initially told officers the boy was 18, raising suspicions that something sexual was going on. But back at the police station, Fualaau and Letourneau denied there had been any"touching." Instead, they said, Letourneau had been babysitting the boy and took him from her home after she and her husband had a fight.About two months after the marina incident, Letourneau became pregnant with the couple's first daughter.
