GOLDSBORO, N.C. -- A Wayne County teacher has been arrested and charged with a felony for allegedly having sex with an 18-year-old male student.

 

Laurie Spurlock, 36, of Goldsboro, a teacher at Charles B. Aycock High School, turned herself in to authorities Thursday afternoon after the Wayne County Public School System asked the sheriff's office to investigate.

 

The relationship was reported to the Wayne County Sheriff's Office as having occurred between mid-September 2005 and January 2006, but the alleged accusations against Spurlock did not occur on school property, according to authorities.

 

Spurlock, who is listed as an English teacher on the Wayne County school system's Web site, was charged with two counts of felony sexual offense with a student. Secured bond has been set at $15,000.

 

The case, according to the sheriff's office, is still under investigation.

 

 

It's not right, IMO, ... but the legal age of consent in NC is 16.

that's gross.

if it didnt happen in school even if its gross since the kid is legal age how is that illegal?

 

This student must have been attracted to manly women with facial hair.

Wow, so the only illegal thing that was done here was only the fact that she was his teacher, not that he was 16 when it started and 18 now? That is strange.

Interesting. I wonder if that law would actually stand up to constitutinal muster?

I can't see any constitutional grounds or connection one way or another. I don't think it would come up.

Oh sure, NOW the kid'll get charged with underage drinking!!!!

Granted this particular case involves a troll of a teacher. But so many of these involve good looking and downright hot teachers. Where was that crap when I was in HS?

 

This student must have been attracted to manly women with facial hair.

 

I'm gonna stick my neck out there and assume she might have other issues.
