A school teacher has been arrested for having sexual interaction with her student.
31-year-old Kristen O’Brien was arrested in Florida after she admitted that she had an ‘inappropriate relationship’ with a young student.
She also revealed that she and the student had a sexual encounter in the boy’s family home while the mother slept on the couch next to them, the Daytona Beach News Journal reported.
The former Christian school teacher said that she just wanted to be friends with the boy’s family after developing a ‘crush’ on him.
She visited them every week and even attempted to make her student jealous by taking his brother to a fast-food restaurant.
The student’s mother only became suspicious after seeing the teacher’s messages on her son’s phone.
Furious, she decided to confront the teacher she trusted by inviting her to a restaurant where the teacher admitted the illegal relationship with her son.
She also admitted that she had developed feelings for the young boy, the Daytona Beach police said.
O’Brien was arrested on charges of lewd and lascivious battery sex act on a child.
According to the arrest report, O’Brien told the boy that they could pretend she never told him about her feelings, saying they could stop their connection or they could do whatever they liked without worrying about the consequences.
The Daytona Beach News Journal added that O’Brien wanted to spend more time with the child’s family, befriending his parent to see him often.
During one visit, she and the child had a sexual encounter while the mother was sleeping on the couch.
