a former high school teacher in idaho was arrested during a traffic stop and accused of raping the boy behind the wheel == because she was too intoxicated to drive.
jessica lawson, 36, and the teenage student were pulled over earlier this month when police noticed a taillight was out.
the boy allegedly told police he was driving because lawson was “too drunk to drive,” according to court documents obtained by the idaho state journal .
police claim the boy admitted to having marijuana, the report stated.
later that day, police received a 911 call from the boy’s parents, who accused lawson, a former teacher at south fremont high school in st. anthony, of picking up their son around 11 p.m. the previous night and taking him to her home.
