Teacher Marries Student She Was Accused Of Having S*x With

Baylee A Turner, a 26-year-old Missouri high school teacher, has had the allegation against her withdrawn after she married the student with whom she was accused of having sex.
Turner, who used to teach at Sarcoxie High School, was accused with having sexual contact with one of her male students by prosecutors. According to the Joplin Globe, the allegations stem from a February 2019 investigation by the Jasper County Sheriff’s Department.
Turner, who was 23 at the time, had resigned after the charges against her arose a month before.

According to court documents, both Turner and the student acknowledged that they had sex at Turner’s home.
Assistant prosecutor Nate Dally told the Joplin Globe that the charge against her was being dropped after she married the student, whose identity has not been revealed.
Dally said that because the former student now has spousal privilege, he can no longer be compelled to testify against his wife.
