Lesbian Teacher/Student Relationship

News Reports
The latest story all over the news is of 36-year-old Elizabeth Miklosovic, a teacher in Michigan who has been accused of having a sexual relationship with a 14-year-old girl who was a former student. She has been charged with criminal sexual conduct and suspended from teaching; many news reports also mention that the two were wedded in a pagan ritual. They had known each other for several years, and the relationship began as an emotional connection that progressed into physical contact.
There is a huge difference between this story and that of Mary Kay LeTourneau. Although her relationship involved children (ones she already had, and ones born to her by preteen Vili Fualaau), it was heterosexual and fairly normal in terms of kink vs. vanilla. Miklosovic’s relationship, though, was lesbian and involved witchcraft. The religious right is going to jump on this story even more rabidly than they did the LeTourneau saga.
