Heather Zeo Arrested For Having Sex With Underage Student (VIDEO)

Heather Zeo, a 36-year-old married mother of three who teaches at North Penn High School in Pennsylvania, was arrested for allegedly having sex with one of her underage students. The student described how the relationship escalated from Facebook flirtations to sexual intercourse during a courtroom appearance.

Prosecutors say that Zeo engaged in a "calculated seduction" and that they "will be asking for jail time."

Zeo is also accused of having an inappropriate relationship with another underage student. She is currently out on bail.

My outrage (significantly muted by expectation) is for the media; this is, first of all, a non-story - they should be telling their audience about any of the tens of thousands of serious issues we face. Secondly, projecting ones morals onto others is _wrong,_ and the understanding that it is wrong is one of the fundamental principals upon which our country was founded. Thirdly, the prudish - the folks the media had on - are all focused on 'issues" that aren't even issues in this instance. They provide false equivalencies.

In short, this is nothing but a media hype attempt to get viewers to pay attention to their drivel and not a serious discussion of ethical merit.

It is sad that so many people in the nation support exploiting and raping children.

[macintoshsauce]

Many liberals on here seem to support that wholeheartedly.

[sallythewerewolf]

So do conservatives. Witness Mark Foley and "fine upstanding family men" going on underage-sex junkets.

[The Ghost]

What's sad is your false equivalence.

There are creeps out there who rape infants. Equating that horror with a 17 year old "dating" a teacher is a crime all on it's own.

You SHOULD be ashamed, but everyone here knows you are incapable of that.

[ywcachieve]

I am so sick and tired of these pedophiles becoming teachers.

[audadvnc]

OMFG! If a woman like that hit on me in high school I'd be on her in a heartbeat.

[Not-so-PC]

Sexual intercourse during a courtroom appearance? WoW, she must be a pro...Who writes this crap!

[TomInJax]

I just caught that, very funny. Like the road sign I saw on a Tampa street years ago, "No parking or standing cars from here to corner."

[civa666]

This is just another example of how life is just not fair! When I was 17 I would get aroused with the wind blowing and I had a math teacher that was 1000 yrs old with dust for blood! Man, I wish I had one teacher in High School like this! Just like a Van Halen Video!

[runfastandwin]

As a man and a former teenager, I say the kid got lucky, and let's leave it at that. Every one of these press conferences you see Mom crying and carrying on while you can see Dad in the background going HELL YEAH that's my boy!

[lyingtruth]

I asked one my teachers if she'd like to do it when I was in Jr. High. I don't see the problem except that the kid is a rat!

[macintoshsauce]

You are a sad person indeed.

[daedelus]

Sounds like you were over 18 so it was ok.

[sallythewerewolf]

And if she gets pregnant, you're connected to the batty-bat for the rest of your life I she chooses to carry the pregnancy to term...

[The Ghost]

That happens to people over 18 every day.

[leatherneck1971]

Here in Arizona a female teacher was just given probation for having sex with a female student in the gym of school no less! This will not slow down or become effectively reduced till these female pedophiles start getting some "stiff prison sentences" and this double standard be stopped! I think many women are enabling these females in their ranks by not "raising more demands for punishment" out of fear that this myth of women do not do such things will hurt their gender! But as mothers & fathers we all ought to be outraged at these pedophiles male or female whom prey on our children whom are not ready for things that their immature minds and bodies are vulnaralbe to! And my view anyone whom advocates this is not harmful is either not a good parent or has no children or is a pedophile themselves!

rotf

[sallythewerewolf]

Sounds like a lot of people here woud be perfectly happy for their sons to get involved with an unstable woman, maybe get an STD or become fathers at a very young age.

[Godweiser]

Actually, she had the presence of mind to bring condoms. Not defending the rest of it though. You think she could just wait a few months until the kid was out of her class, graduated and 18 and then have the affair.

[gnomic]

Seems like a victimless crime to me.

[macintoshsauce]

Until it happens to YOUR son or daughter. Then you will be talking differently.

[primordialsoup]

The boy was 17+. Magically at 18 it becomes okay?

[ywcachieve]

gnomic, it is a crime to have sex with a minor. And it is not a victimless crime. The child is a victim. You sound like a pedophile yourself.

[The Ghost]

thanks for the projection, Prudy McSquare.

[samjung23]

Anyone else love the CALCULATED seduction line by the prosecutors?

ROFLMAO!

[KevinVT]

Obviously straight women should not be allowed to be teachers.

[daedelus]

I had never thought of religious fundamentalist sexual predators as straight until you mentioned it.

[Mitzy]

Sex in the courtroom???? Syntax, people, syntax!

[larry278]

Damn, they are taxing that too.

[Estevan Benson]

The boy was 17 for chrissakes. That's hardly inappropriate. There are 17 year old boys sleeping with 30something year old women all the time I would imagine.

[Hammerofthor]

Some punks get all the luck. Sigh...

[Gudrun]

Not with an adult who is in a position of responsibility and authority for that student, it's not right. In a word, ick!

[rickcritt]

Exactly! This country has become hysterical on this subject. A 17 year old knows what he or she is doing and is hardly a child.

[kasule]

zactly rick, thats wut i been talken bout!

[Redfox834]

I'd agree with you if there was the ethics factor. As an authority figure she shouldn't be taking or giving any favors to the people she evaluates. It leaves the door wide open for corruption and sexual harrassment.

[churchhill]

17 year olds will have sex with anything, their horny, everyone gets that, but thats besides the point. The point is that you have an ADULT, taking advantage of the confused hormonal rush of a CHILD, to get that child to have sex with them, for THEIR enjoyment.

Do we drop charges like this when a adult male manipulates a girl to have sex with him? No, and we should not do it here just because the predator is female.

[The Ghost]

Quit calling a 17 year old a child. It's moronic.
