Paragons of Virtue Arrested

It's time to name and shame the self-proclaimed paragons of virtue. Keep it civil, though.

Stories are about those who have been placed in positions of trust, and then abused that trust.

Feel free to add stories of the self-righteous from other walks of life.

New rule: With regard to stories of particularly, but not only, female teachers sexually assaulting students. Any comments similar to "where were they when I was in school" will earn you the right to find another forum.

A teacher was busted for allegedly sexually abusing her 13-year-old student, reportedly having sex with him at least 12 times, sending him money via CashApp and having a pregnancy scare.

According to an arrest affidavit obtained by the Laredo Morning Times in Texas, Adriana Mariel Rullan, 27, had "sexual intercourse/sexual contact" with the student a dozen times, including at a middle school in the United Independent School District.

I definitely would’ve slept with her when I was 13 if she gave me the chance…which is exactly why it is and should be illegal. 13 year old kids aren’t developed enough to recognize a lot of bad ideas. A 27 year old teacher should be.

Exactly! It doesn't matter if a child "enjoys" the sexual contact, because that can be weaponized and their future can be stolen. It's unfortunately normalized for children in certain social spaces (especially celebrities) to date far upwards; we need better common knowledge about the danger of age gaps and the cycle of abuse it perpetuates.

So she raped him 12 times, and we’re not using the word “rape?”

Some places have really specific definitions for rape, ie “forcibly inserting your penis…”. So what women do to men can never be called rape even though it “is”. Using the term for cases where it doesn’t specifically apply would be libel and you can/would be sued.

Sec. 22.011. SEXUAL ASSAULT. (a) A person commits an offense if:

while "rape" isn't defined, it is often used to describe sexual assault.

using "rape" in this context would be perfectly reasonable, and i think whoever wrote the article should have done so.

I don't think they can call it rape until after she's been convicted of rape, unless they want to open themselves up to a lawsuit. Not sure if they could have said, "Allegedly raped," or not, but I wouldn't fault the writer or even the publisher for having to phrase it this way. I think their choice of headline was more likely motivated by legal pressures than any sort of bias against rape victims, male or female.

He was later found with self-inflicted injuries, taken to a hospital and then admitted to a mental health facility...

I hope she rots in prison for the rest of her life.

Meh, I hope her cell mates are not fond of child rapists

These things are not mutually exclusive.

Rape. It's rape. Call it rape. Guys can be raped. That's what happened.

[–] minch 9 points 1 year ago

From what I've heard it's not legally advisable in most countries for media to lable things as rape prior to the perpetrator being convicted of rape. Also I think the law commonly defines rape as forceful penetration, at least in the US. So it's not necessarily the writer's/publisher's fault when the headlines don't call it what it is.

What a fucking disaster. She was delegated with one thing - to look after and educate kids. And she not only failed that, she failed our general standards of not touching kids, not fucking them. Why it's too hard for her to understand? What in this system failed to make her think it's ok?
