Tacoma Teacher Meredith Powell Sexually Assaulted Students, Cops Say



Tacoma, Washington

Well, it looks like we are on a roll again, as far as teachers getting frisky with students. This time around, it’s a 24-year-old high school math teacher who stands accused of having sexual contact with two students in her classroom and exchanging inappropriate texts and nude photos.

Meredith Powell taught at Lincoln High School in Tacoma. According to investigators, Powell, allegedly performed oral sex on a 15-year-old and, in a separate incident, had sexual contact with a 16-year-old while the rest of the school was attending an assembly last month.

Court documents reveal that Powell admitted her illegal behavior, though she pleaded not guilty on Friday to two counts of third-degree child rape and one count of communication with a minor for immoral purposes.

The court documents state that Powell also allegedly sent one of the students a nude photo of herself in a bathtub through Snapchat.

Police say Powell also sent sexually explicit text messages to a third, 17-year-old student, according to the Seattle Times.

She allegedly sent a text to the 17-year-old's girlfriend apologizing for her "promiscuous" texts.
