Stephanie Peterson was accused of being in a relationship with one of her students and buying him drugs including marijuana.
Stephanie Peterson, a 26 year-old teacher from Florida was recently accused of abusing her underage student and giving him drugs.
Peterson and the boy first met when she first started working in the school and she was only 'nice and friendly' to him at first. When they started seeing each other she used to buy marijuana for him and made him smoke.
Peterson was arrested after a 14 year-old boy told his parents about his relationship with his married teacher. He told his parents that Peterson used to pick him up from his home in Florida and that they've spent many hours together.
Peterson told the boy that their relationship must stay as private as possible because 'he could be expelled from school if anyone finds out'.
A 14 year-old boy also told his parents that his teacher was buying him marijuana and sometimes even made him smoke when he didn't want to, and that he was getting a lot of bad grades since he started his relationship with the teacher, who also used to send him nude pictures of herself.
Stephanie Peterson was married to her husband since 2015, and althought the couple didn't have any children, Peterson's husband said that they were planning kids together.
Boy decided to tell his parents about his relationship with the teacher when he relaised 'he's doing something really wrong.'
Peterson told the boy that he shouldn't tell anyone about their relationship and that he could be expelled from the school if anyone finds out. The boy said that he relaised what he was doing and that he decided the right decision is to tell his parents the truth.
Peterson was fired from the school she was working in and could be sentenced up to 10 years with $25,000 bond.
