Your a horrible person "rturner".. Your site should be taken down.. Learn how to blog correctly.
My son attends WCHS and said that the allegations are untrue and that it is just a trouble making kid.. it is absolutely wrong how our society ruins someone's life and then investigates later.
Geez Randy. do people not want to know news? they expect you to cover up something important about a teacher involved with a student? Must be someone from the Stark/Rohr/Lane camp.
And to 7:27: do you not want to hear important news? Do you only want to read about Mike Pound complaining about his daughter shopping and Wally Kennedy watching Rangeline and Anson on one of his rants? get a clue You are an idiot in my opinion. A teacher being arrested under these circumstances is news.
this is 7:50 again and I should have said more in my earlier comment to clarify my thoughts. the fact this women has been arrested given the allegations is news and we all know she is innocent until proven guilty. 7:27 and 7:40 have not been selected on a jury to make judgments about her guilt or innocence and to say anything derogatory to Mr turner about his reporting of this news in this situation just shows how stupid you both are.
She taught my daughter for years and is happily married I don't believe it.
to 7:40 I hope you know your kid is telling the truth. You may find out s/he isn't and I hope you dont
It's so strange that people who have nothing but hate to spew don't have the guts to show who they are.
she's hot
It sure is strange how people who have nothing but hate to spew don't even have the guts to show who they are. Thanks for the info on the teacher Randy.
7:40 - Only 2 people know if it is true, and neither of them is your son.
FAKE!
My nephew goes to WCHS and she was having sex with more than one student she was planning to divorce her husband this summer to be with another student and not the one she got caught with and there was proof and still more proof they haven't found from another kid I heard about it months ago I just was unsure on the teacher
Your son is more intelligent than the entire WCHS staff and WCPD officers investigating the incident? Your little Einstein may need to correct everyone by offering his opinion of the student involved, and any other pertinent info the overly intelligent fledgling has. Until he does so, obviously solving the case and saving the Judiciary system time and money...feel free to STFU!
She is the best teacher I have ever had. Ever. <3

I have a funny feeling if this was about a male teacher and female student the comments on here would be much different. Just another sign of the Feminist society we are living in.
Anyone who has attended Webb City R7 school district knows just how easily their students can be coerced into fabricating a story as outlandish as this. I'm a former student (regretfully) and know first hand what kind of students attend that school. They're naive and feed off of drama more than most children their age. Mrs. Jo has a teaching style very unique these days - she takes the time to get to know her students and establish relationships with them so thy she can help them to the best of her ability. Many teachers and parents have an issue with that; in their eyes she gets too close. They have made terrible allegations about her for years - unfortunately someone took it too far this time. My heart and prayers go out to her and her family. I'm ashamed to say I was a part of a school district that would foster this kind of bullying.
She was never arrested. Cite your source.
This is horrible...too many adult figures doing this these days. Look at Madden from Baxter Springs....fired from the hs for sex with students but was allowed to run the hit zone now has a 15 yr old knocked up....(big problem in baxter with man and child relations..)
I apologize - I failed to clarify that not ALL students who attend the school district are as deplorable as I implied. There are good and bad in this district as well as others, I just happened to come into contact with more of them in this district than any other.
I was in her first year of teaching choir in the junior high. My mother and sister were just talking about this today. I was told it was a rumor. I highly doubt this is true. I remember how much she loved her then fiance. She is a sweet woman. Don't believe until there is physical proof!
That's so not true! She was just telling me the other day of future plans w/her husband to move to a different house in the next year. Don't believe everything you hear!
None of this is true. I personally know this teacher and have known her for her entire teaching career. She was accused by a kid that admitted his feelings for her, to which she said no and please stop this, which was brought to the attention of the school by the student and his father. She is happily married and would never do anything like this. The only reason this is even public is because some douche bag little punk didn't get into the pants he wanted so he accused her. Which by the way, if a teacher is even accused of sexually abusing or having sexual relations with a student, that stays on their teaching record forever. Even if the accusations come out to be false. One way or another this punk ass kid ruined her teaching career. If he sees this, all I want to know is, are you happy with yourself? Do you feel better knowing you could ruin her life all because of your teenage hormones?
Pics or it didn't happen
It was on the local news.
So it is true, just very hard to believe.
I've had this teacher for over 5 years. She is one of the best teachers I have EVER had. She's still a human, none the less. Don't be trashing on the woman, when you don't even know what happens. She is one of the sweetest, nicest teachers I've had.
Where do you think the local news got the information? The people at the television stations read the Turner Report every day. They saw the item, then went to case.net and found the case. The Turner Report is a must read for the people working in local TV news.
I would do her
I just think that it's a bunch of bull crap. Okay? If you all had been her student, and knew how great of a teacher she was, you would understand that she would NEVER do anything like this. There is absolutely no proof. The boy she was accused of having sex with denied that she did. He said he would never and neither would she. This woman's life fell apart in 3 days time. She is locked up and I think it's crap that you put someone in jail over a bunch of rumors. She took the time to build a relationship and trusted her students. And then, the people I go to school with (unfortunately) turned her loving into something unimaginable. She was the best teacher I ever had, and will always be my "mom". She's more than just a teacher, she was my bestfriend. So, don't go accusing her of something that she didn't do. Trust me. She's is so much better than that.

I am confused at all the hateful comments about how Randy started the rumor...The teacher was arrested yesterday during school hours. From what I see, the post is total fact, no speculation or opinion on the matter. We have all heard rumors from students who attend high school. I guess at this point we just wait and see :)
I Dont honestly think it is true she is a great teacher I had her as a teacher and I hope that this boy who made this up is happy with himself for ruining her life and her teaching career
What is true is that she was charged/arrested. It doesn't necessarily mean she's guilty, but we may find that out in time. I wouldn't lean too far in either direction, except to say that if the police went to the trouble of charging her they probably have evidence of some kind.
If there is one thing I've learned I know that people can appear happy from the outside and have a lot of problems on the inside. We all either know of families or were members of families that seemed normal to others but had skeletons. Sometimes nice people do bad things. If she really is innocent but was getting close enough to students that a story like this was believable to police, it does suggest that there was an issue with professional boundaries at the least. If it is true, it's a very sad situation for everyone involved.
This is false!! I know the kid who accused her of the sexual acts. I was his babysitter for years. He is a known liar and does like to stir up trouble. It a shame he has to drag down a respectable teacher because hes bored and wants to stir something up. She is innocent! !!
Making serious accusations like this, isn't some joke, and for all we know, the person who reported it could be anyone from a misinformed student, an overly jealous girlfriend of a student, the student himself, or somebody with horrible intentions to hurt either one. Fact of the matter is nobody should be making any judgments until the jury finds the defendant guilty or not guilty. I went to Webb City schools, and although I didn't care much for the staff at times, I can personally tell you that particular school is heavily surveyed by everyone who attends (students and staff alike) and the staff knows that their reputation can easily hurt their profession, especially they have high expectations placed on them. I'm doubting that the allegations are true myself, but if it did happen, that would be pretty damn shocking. Either way, if you want the answers, wait till the hearing. Making preconceived notions with an anonymous name tag doesn't make you look good. : P
If you people hate Randy Turner and the Turner Report, why are you reading it?? I just don't get that.
Just bc it was on the news doesn't mean she actually did it. The news isn't a court hearing. It does mean she was charged however. But y'all should know that already bc you are reading it from Mr. Turner's blog. Read his credentials? Fairly certain the man doesn't spread "gossip". Smh.
Jennifer
It is being seen from text to text relations as well.
There are text evidence and camera evidence from the incident. Can't get more "untrue" than that can you?
It IS Very TRUE!!! There IS EVIDENCE!! Some of you just don't WANT to believe It!!! I know for a FACT!
I'm not hopping on the "she did/ she did not" train. I will say that either way, this is unfortunate.
On one hand, worst case scenario: she did have sexual relations with this kid and have proof. Messages, snapchats, pictures, what ever. In that case, she took advantage of her position which I can't condone, but imagine how her family will have to deal with that kind of situation...
On the other hand, this could all just be a giant, misconstrued story by a teenage boy that wants to see a beloved teacher's life drown in allegations. I've gone to that school; I know the kind of heartless... assholes! Pardon my French but I don't know how else to describe a person that would deliberately toss a woman and her profession into the fire! If that is the case, that child needs to made an example of.
Nonetheless, her career is ruined, her relationship with her family will never be the same, and she will be burdened by this for the rest of her life.
Innocent until proven guilty. Anyone who is willing to declare her guilty without knowing ANYTHING should be ashamed of themselves. Randy why would you even want to be a party to publicly calling out a teacher for this type of thing when you yourself know how it hurts. I would have so much more respect for YOU if you would have decided that you wouldn't want anyone else to have to go through the same stuff you did. You did your research to find out how many kids she had. You posted who a specific teacher was that wasn't ever charged with anything but lost his job due to rumors and innuendo when NO ONE else was naming his name. Pulling other people down will never heal you. It won't help your reputation or change anyone's mind. I personally think you were treated so unfairly and I can't imagine how horrible that must have been. You are weird but not a "groomer."
I have noticed how quickly you seem to post any type of story about people who live here and are in trouble. You seem to take some sort of sick pleasure in the downfall of someone.
It's not true. I've been in her classes since 8th grade and I'm a sophomore now. She wouldn't do anything like that knowing her job that she loves and had devoted her life to.
Dude...lets face it, she did it and now she gets to pay the price of her doings. People just need to get over the fact it happened....
Please stop with all the hate and negativity. It is not our place to judge, that's Gods place. He will judge her, then he will forgive her and help her find her way again. As her friend, I'm as shocked and saddened as many of her other friends and students. This is the time to wrap her in our love and help her and her family on the difficult journey ahead. Please keep them all in your prayers.

If this is true and as sad as it is I can only feel bad for her family. She knew exactly what she was doing and what the consequences could be, yet she still chose that path. Her husband and children will suffer from her awful decisions. Those are the ones who I feel sorry for.
Of course this person is innocent until proven guilty.
While you may not like Randy Turner or this blog, he cited sources, reported charges and linked to them.
Unfortunately, I got pay sites. If we are going to report, we report with links that work.
I am betting that this woman, right or wrong, was charged. I am betting Turner got that information. But if his links don't work, the story don't work.
Turner is just reporting what happened. He didn't make one judgment.
She will get a light sentence if anything at all. A California teacher received 30 days in jail for similar charge. I find it odd men get years in prison but not so much the women. It's almost as if the men say "that a boy" when they tap a cougar but pedophile if a male teacher engages with a 17 year old. Why the double standard?
I hope she gets her a good lawyer because she has a damn good case for slander
Wow
Check your facts. . Madden resigned he was not fired. Look at the board notes. Just saying. Know what you're talking about before you speak or mind your own business.
If it is true then I am glad someone reported it and action was taken. If not then she can sue. Here in Baxter.. teachers transgressions get swept under the rug. Teachers are asked to resign(in private session of course) or shipped to a different school system. Madden, for example, is guilty as sin. The recent victim, is 15 and pregnant...or maybe theres a baby now. She was due in late June. Oddly enough there has been no arrest. The girl has shown off all of her texts. She claims their love affair started when she was in 7th grade! Somehow people seem to want to protect the man! Because he used to be good at sports and is socially gifted. This world has gone crazy. Morals and trustworthiness are just not popular these days. Scott is nothing more then an old, washed up, overweight, bald headed loser that preys on young girls. Girls his daughters age! Disgusting... and his wife, who knows, stands by him! WTH
I believe she Did this no teacher should be texting a student bottom line, she was unhappy at home with her husband, as a known family friend she was trying to find a way out. Her sisters husband is just as sick stealing people's pictures from Facebook and creating accounts this whole family is sick in the head!
You might check YOUR facts! Madden has been arrested! He has a gotten a girl pregnant the same age as his daughter!
