Photos: Female teacher 'blames school for her having sex with teen student'

A female teacher, Mary Beth Haglin, accused of sleeping with a pupil has blamed her former school's administrators for her alleged relationship, claiming the school administrators "turned a blind eye."

Mary Beth, a substitute teacher claimed authorities "allowed this to happen" after she was arrested for her relationship with a 17-year-old male student at Washington High in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.

According to her, SubCentral, a multidistrict database for substitute teachers, should be blamed because they knew about the relationship since February but refused acting on it or reporting to police because they wanted to look good in the eyes of the public.

During an interview with CBS 2 News, she said "From April 17 to May 17, they knew and certainly probably longer than that, probably since February when they first questioned me."

''I am not shying away from this, I am not running away from this. I am facing this head-on. Previous abusive relationships led me into this. The environment the school put me in didn't help to curb anything. These people all knew what was going on, but they turned a blind eye because they wanted to protect their school and didn't want it to get into the limelight. They allowed this to happen. They knew in February."

Mary Beth has been ordered not to have contact with her teenage lover after she was released from custody at Linn County Jail and will appear in court on August accused of sexual exploitation of a minor.

Police arrest father & son for alleged rape at Illinois State University orientation

A father allegedly put ecstasy in a female student's drink so that his son can rape her. This took place in a residence hall during a two-day event at Illinois State University (the Preview), which is meant for students to find out more about the university before classes start in August. Parents can attend the event but stay on separate floors inside the Hewett residence Hall.

According to a prosecutor, Shawn Childs Jr, and his father, Shawn Childs Sr, were in the hall along with other incoming students when this incident happened. A woman, who has not been named, told authorities Childs Sr put a pill in her soda before she went back to her room feeling ill. His son then followed her inside and raped her twice. This took place between 10 and 11 pm.

The father and son duo have now been arrested. Childs Jr and his father (who had 22 ecstasy pills in his pocket during the arrest) were arrested at a train station, as they were about to head to Chicago.

While Childs Jnr has been charged with four counts of criminal sexual assault, his father, who has faced previous convictions for attempted murder, domestic battery and weapon charges, has been charged with possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver.

The lady Lindsay Lohan called a 'Russian hooker' in her rant to fiance, is planning to sue her for defamation

There are reports that Lindsay Lohan and her 22 year old Russian millionaire boyfriend Egor have parted ways following their balcony bust-up at her London apartment last week. Before then, Lindsay, who friends say has insecurity problems and constantly fights with her fiance over cheating allegations, posted a photo of her fiance at a party and said he was partying with a 'Russian hooker'.

That 'Russian hooker' is fashion designer Dasha Pashevkina (pictured with Lindsay above) and she says she plans to sue the star for the derogatory comment..

Dasha has spoken out in her own defense, insisting she's never slept with Egor.

'I've known Egor for five years and have never slept with him and never would,' fashion designer Dasha Pashevkina told The Sun. 'I'm the one who introduced Lindsay to Egor. We are just friends.

'Lindsay's insecurities mean she can't have any girls around him. Her behaviour is so volatile but honestly I did not expect this.'

Dasha also told The Sun that Lindsay threw Egor's mobile phone into the sea during the couple's recent trip to Mykonos after accusing him of cheating

'Lindsay had a meltdown as Egor went out with his London friends for dinner,' she said, adding: 'I'm taking legal action. She has a history of this and needs to learn a lesson.'
