BELLEFONTAINE, Ohio — A fourth-grade teacher had a side job as a prostitute, and even skipped class after using a school computer to arrange an afternoon tryst at a motel, authorities said Wednesday.

Amber Carter, 35, left school early on Tuesday _ taking half a sick day _ and was arrested in a motel parking lot in Bellefontaine, where authorities had set up a sting operation.

An anonymous e-mail was sent to the Logan County Sheriff’s Department on Feb. 4 saying a local woman was posting cash-for-sex ads on the popular Web site Craigslist, Lt. Rob Bibart said.

    So, hypothetically, if one of her students made an appointment and they got busted, would she be charged with having sex with a student or could she pass it off as a sex education class with special tutoring?

    #14 – “I think you are right. Meth probably.”

    No, she doesn’t have meth face. Cocaine or heroin is much more likely.

    #17 – “Yeah, why should the pimps be the only ones allowed to victimize women, let the government do it. Gotta keep that revenue stream.

    “You are one sick puppy.”

    Clearly you misunderstand the purpose of ‘regulation’. The government doesn’t become the pimp in this fact-pattern; that’d be left to free enterprise. Prostitution is the oldest form of capitalism.

    >>Clearly you misunderstand the purpose of ‘regulation’.

    No matter if the door to prostitution says regulation or exploitation on it, after it’s opened it soon becomes difficult to distinguish the difference.

    I don’t think this is the face of some one strung out on drugs but of some one who has been crying for hours because her crapy life just got a whole lot worse.

  5. Rich says:

    Bellefontaine (pronounced Belle-Fountain) is a little ways north of where I live here, and it’s known for it’s odd, inbred people. It also hosts the highest point in the state, so I imagine the air may be a little thin there.

    I was a former teacher, and would never consider returning.

    Math or history, I hope, and not English. :-)

    #8, school tracking this kind of stuff? I don’t think so. They’re not your local cop nor they’re very technical to do anything about it. Most of them anyways.

    #15 She probably be slap on the wrist and told to get back to work. Hey, at least her client are the kids! 

    #24 it’s a mug face. Have any one of you seen many mug faces that are “normal” to you? Seriously, comments like these makes my head hurt. Most of you are making comments as though you know what’s going on, making assumptions and yet litter the thread with comments like “she looks like she’s on drugs.” Why don’t you go get yourself arrested and see how your mug turns out. Then we can start criticizing whether or not you are also on drugs. Now if the comments were made jokingly that’s a different story but they’re apparently not.

  8. Mr Diesel says:

    Last time I was in Bellefontaine I was picking up lots of ammo and a backseat load of guns from the distributor up there.

    They also have a large auto test track there as well.

    I think she looks like she had a bad day that’s about to get a whole lot worse. Sad

    #20, Cow-Patty,

    If you lived in CA your company couldn’t disallow that.

    Geeze, do you ever quit with the bullshit?

    Until Cow-Patty the Terrible becomes dictator, any company may dismiss any employee at any time except under very narrow circumstances, such as discrimination due to filing a worker compensation claim, sex harassment, and the like.
    You do not need a reason to fire anyone. If you worked for me (like that would ever happen) I could fire you because you didn’t shave this morning, or because your feet smell, or because I’m grouchy. I don’t even need a reason or to tell you why.

    If you were a CEO you would know that. Now do you understand why your ruse no longer works?

  10. Paddy-O says:

    # 29 Mr. Fusion said, “any company may dismiss any employee at any time except under very narrow circumstances,”

    What ARE you babbling about?

  11. Mr. Fusion says:

    #30, Cow-Patty,

    I know you can’t read very quickly so I’m typing real slow, just for you. So take your time and read every word. I promise not to write too fast.

    In #20 you told Dallas that in California a company may not tell an employee they could not moonlight. In reality a company may tell an employee anything they like. They may even tell them how long (or short) their hair may be, what town they live in, or anything NOT covered by narrow legislation based upon discrimination or retaliation.

    You have claimed that you are in a senior management position and you have also claimed you are a CEO. If you were either then you would have know how the “right to work” law apply. This shows you really are a fraud and obviously don’t know what you are talking about with most things.

    Did I write slow enough for you? I sure hope I didn’t get too far ahead.

  12. Paddy-O says:

    # 31 Mr. Fusion said, “In #20 you told Dallas that in California a company may not tell an employee they could not moonlight.”

    Correct. Courts in CA don’t allow general employees to voluntarily give up that right. Same for non-compete clauses unless, you are C level or something like a scientist involved in invention.

    So, what are you babbling about?

  13. Mr. Fusion says:

    #32, Cow-Patty,

    Then provide some case law. You know, an actual court case where a Judge said moonlighting is a protected activity.

    OH WAIT, you won’t do it simply because that would mean you would have to admit you are wrong.

    And I did search for a case. Since you now claim to have labor law experience, finding a case shouldn’t be that difficult for you.

  14. Paddy-O says:

    33 Mr. Fusion

    Since you don’t live in CA and are keen on learning the law, I suggest you sign up for some online college level HR employment law courses.

    You will quickly (1 or 2 years) learn the “basics”. CA employment law is the most complicated and onerous in the country.

    I received my employment law training from an attorney named Richard Simmons ( I know, laugh but that was his name).

    Feel free to go back to school. If you want to be a senior exec in CA you better know this area, or put your company at great risk from the socialist state.

  15. Mr. Fusion says:

    #34, Cow-Patty,

    Then provide some case law. ALJs must follow case law.

  16. Paddy-O says:

    # 35 Mr. Fusion said, “Then provide some case law. ALJs must follow case law.”

    Only if there is case law covering this matter that is at the appeal level or above, which there isn’t.

    Wrong again McFly.

  17. Mr. Fusion says:

    #36, Cow-Patty,

    If there is no case law then you are wrong. It is not established law. If you understood anything about law, tribunals, and hearings, then this would have been clear.

    So again, you are again showing you don’t know and were just bullshitting.

  18. Paddy-O says:

    # 37 Mr. Fusion said, “If there is no case law then you are wrong. It is not established law. ”

    You’re babbling again. The judges decide what evidence they accept in Administrative cases.

    Strike 3 McFly.

  19. Mr. Fusion says:

    #38, Cow-Patty,

    Strike 3 McFly.

    So you’re out!

    Lower court judges must follow superior court decisions. That means the law.

    You have yet to post any California Statute or Regulation that expressly forbids a company from retaliating against an employee.

    I have no intention of looking up any cases for you, you wouldn’t read them anyway, but the Supreme Court has said an employee may be fired at will except in very narrow circumstances or discrimination or retaliation. The company can still pay the employee the remainder of any contracted wages or fees but there is nothing to stop a company from not even telling you why you were discharged.

    But then you are a legal expert too.
