A 22-year-old PE teacher has been arrested for allegedly sending semi-nude pics and inappropriate videos to a 13-year-old student. Meanwhile, a married substitute teacher has been slammed with a 10-year prison sentence after paying pupils for sex.
Florida Teacher Caught Sending Lewd Material to Underage Student
Yezmar Angeanis Ramos-Figueroa was arrested on 26 November by Osceola County cops after the mother of a teenage boy reported disturbing contact with her son. The victim, a virtual student at Central Pointe Christian Academy, confirmed the teacher had sent explicit texts, videos, and semi-nude photos.
“The exchanges involved obscene material sent to a minor and inappropriate texting back and forth,” said Kim Montes, spokesperson for Osceola County Sheriff’s Office.
Ramos-Figueroa confessed to sending a picture and lewd texts to the boy. She’s been charged with distributing obscene material and transmitting harmful content to a minor. So far, police found no evidence of a physical relationship, but investigations are ongoing to see if other kids were targeted.
The school suspended Ramos-Figueroa immediately. At a court hearing on 28 November, the teacher was banned from internet use and ordered to avoid all contact with minors. A £10,000 bond was set, but it’s unclear if she’s out on bail.
Married Missouri Substitute Teacher Jailed for 10 Years Over Sex Charges
In a separate sickening case, Carissa Smith, 30, was handed a decade behind bars for paying students in cash and via CashApp for sex. She also gave pupils alcohol and marijuana to groom them.
Both cases serve as grim reminders: trust in educators must be balanced with scrutiny, and safeguarding children should always come first.
