All the teachers I've known of that are female and accused of having affairs with students end up in some kind of trouble.
That's just one rare instance of "Happily Ever After" I guess in a weird, twisted way. But most cases have resulted in the judge giving these women numerous chances before they ever get locked up. I think there was one case out of Florida where the woman (also a teacher) was practically given a slap on the wrist and as soon as she returned home, she was making contact with the victim again! I think she's out on bail right now. I don't think it should matter whether there are more male or female sex offenders - the law is obviously not the same for both parties.
