Summary

Laura Caron, a New Jersey elementary school teacher, faces multiple sexual assault charges for grooming and abusing a 13-year-old student.

The allegations claim Caron, who befriended the student’s mother, molested the boy from age 11 to 16, including conceiving and giving birth to his child in 2019.

The case came to light after the victim’s father posted about the uncanny resemblance between Caron’s son and his own.

    This is living proof that NOT ALL MEN COMMIT THESE ACTS!

    Women are perfectly capable of doing the same damn things, they’re just more sly about it and how often are guys going to complain when they get their dick wet or touched by a girl?

      A woman abuses a boy and the first thing you do is use it as a gotcha moment against… who, exactly? Anyone saying all men or only men, rhetorically, expect you to know if you aren’t part of the problem. So, why so defensive? Just relax, man. No one here was accusing you of anything.

    And this is why I’ve raised my children to never to unconditionally trust people in a position of power, including even family. We had “the talk” early, made it abundantly clear what kind of behavior from an adult is never okay, watch interactions they have with people like a hawk, and check-in enough to know they are safe.

    We don’t have to live life afraid, but we mustn’t ignore that predators can be anywhere and look like anyone.

    I feel so terrible for this child and his siblings. The problems in their lives didn’t begin with this rapist.

    Life shouldn’t have to be this way. 😭

    The boy’s mother also told law enforcement that her son texted her to admit he was the father of her baby and demanded that she kept it a secret for fear of getting Caron “in trouble.”

    Sniches get stitches, bitch

    Oh, ok. She must not have raped him otherwise the article would have said so, right?

    Just a little molestation that resulted in a pregnancy. Not rape, though.

      …is facing at least 10 years in prison if found guilty of first-degree aggravated sexual assault, second-degree sexual assault, and second-degree endangerment to the welfare of a child…

      Those are the legal terms for different kinds of rape.

          Ahh c’mon, men can’t be raped by a woman. If they get hard they want it right? It’s just a little molestation. It’s gotta be in the ass to be rape—and even then, they wanted it.

          /S /S

    Can we finally give up the whole “I wish I had a hot teacher who would have sex with me when I was his age” thing? Because I have heard some asshole say something like that every time a story like this comes out. Always with a female teacher and a male child, of course.

    This is rape. Every single time.

      Don’t invalidate those of us who would have wanted this.

      I wouldn’t want to be a father, but damn my mental health would have been so much better if I had a woman to fuck at age 12

        Why on Earth do you think your mental health would have been better in that situation? You do understand that the women who do this are sexual predators, not romantic partners, right?

            Usually is the key word. There are several episodes I have big issues with and they’ve even back-tracked on a few but I do like most of their takes on things

              When they tackle big topics, they usually get it right. There have been a good number of poor taste jokes that haven’t aged well, but that is the nature of comedy.

    There must be some strong genes for the victim’s father to make that claim
