Arkansas Teacher Allegedly Had Sex with 4 Students

An Arkansas teacher is facing a sexual assault charge for allegedly having sex with four students from two schools, PEOPLE confirms.

Jessie Goline, 25, was arrested on Wednesday and charged with first-degree sexual assault, jail record show. Authorities allege she had sexual relationships with four students over a three-month period in 2016, the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette reports.

Between January and April of last year, the Marked Tree High School teacher allegedly took two students back to her Jonesboro apartment on the same day and had sex with them in separate encounters, according to the publication.

...


One of the alleged victims told investigators that Goline commented on “how good he looked in class” and sent him a photo of herself wearing a thong, the publication reports. He added that Goline allegedly “texted him that she would like to have sex with him but he was too young,” court documents stated, according to KAIT.

She's only facing a single charge for the 4 students because only one was underaged. She probably won't even face jail time.

I'm glad this was clarified.
 
Why do you say she probably won't face jail time? Can you plea away statutory rape that easily, especially given these circumstances?

Do a little research on female teachers who sleep with their students. Most don't face jail time, or if they do it's only for a year. Heck, most of them have MANY more charges, and this is just a single charge. She'll likely get off with just 6 months probation.
 
Legality aside, labeling aside, the very act of someone in a position of power using that position to initiate and dictate sexual relationships with wards under her care is morally and ethically repugnant.
 
What the fuck at that site's sidebar. It's like a buzzfeed listicle of tragedy.

People magazine is pretty trash, but at least the articles aren't tabloid level. It just happened that this is the first article I saw on it. (I grab most of these from google news aggregate)

Why do we need to specify that the teacher was female and the student was male? Does it matter? Would there be a different, more visceral reaction if it was the other way around?
 
If this happens when she's the same age and they are all of legal age, and lets say they are employees at McDonalds or some such shit, and she is their manager and forces this.

It's still wrong. You can't use a position of power over people to nudge them into a sexual relationship it's so fucking wrong.

Of course it matters. Why would we purposely leave details out of a report of a crime??

Because so many people don't read the OP before posting and there is often an assumption of male teacher in these cases. You're right, it shouldn't make a difference (and I alluded to my anger about the fact she likely won't face much in the way of actual punishment)


To clarify one point in the article... One of the victims said she said he was too young, but that didn't seem to stop her in the end.

Yes. It makes a difference to the jury so it makes a difference here. The reasoning why it makes a difference would be another conversation to be had.

Huh? What did I say? Did I screw up again? :(
Its weird how society perceives these sort of situation and I have to admit I've evolved on the matter myself. Some adult males think about how they would have loved to be in those kids shoes back when they were the same age. There's many reasons why that's a fucked up way to think aside from all the double-standards pitfalls that go along with that but what they completely miss is the sinister aspect, that's as clear as day which is, this is a predator that's preying on children from a position of trust, access and authority. She's using them for her own filthy goals and that's not fucking something that should be dismissed or softened with "they got something out of it so...".

You would have people waving torches and pitchforks, demanding the teacher be tossed under the jail and forgotten forever at best if it were reversed.

Yes. In either case, male or female, the teacher is fucked in the head. Out of curiosity, what happens to the teenage boys after this type of thing reveals itself? Therapy?

Why does this keep happening?

Because no one accepts that young men and even male children could be victims of a female perpetrator.

This is even in the wording of the headlines for all of these articles.

Teacher allegedly slept with 4 teen students, 2 in same night should read "Serial rapist grooms four boys, rapes two of them in same night."

Or, shit, here's a good one: Woman, 35, who groomed a boy of 12 into 'clandestine sex trysts' burst into tears as she was jailed for five and a half years. Fucking Clandestine Sex Trysts. Going through so many fucking hoops because the author's mind can't comprehend the phrase "35 year old woman groomed and raped 12 year old boy".

Uh... yeah. Quite a bit. Men are seen as inherently way more predatory in societies eyes.
 
Where were these teachers at when I was in HS?

Going after the more attractive people? It's just that now these things are a lot harder to keep secret because of cell phones and how fast this information can fly around a school.

Seriously though, that's a total creeper response.
 
The situation with the three students older than 18 is slightly different, but it violates all sorts of boundaries for a high school teacher to be banging his or her students.

The fact she apparently knew that the other one was underage and went ahead with it anyway is another thing entirely. It takes a shit person to put the students in that position.
