All I can say is thank God someone caught on to what he was doing, and it's been stopped. I try not wish for justice at the hands of inmates, but I suspect this man will be eating a lot of prison pudding for years to come.

spoon-feeding them a white substance that authorities say was the teacher's semen

Sometimes the perpetrator is a female teacher
Female high school teacher charged with having sex with 17-year-old student on 'numerous occasions' | Mail Online

No one ever claimed otherwise. But, I do have to say...that's not on par with what this guy did.

Why? One involved actual intercourse. Or is it just because of the perception that all 17 year old guys 'want it' (which may or may not be true)?
And please don't get me wrong, neither are acceptable. But there is a double standard which is why i ask the question.

The gender of the victims doesn't make a difference, but age does in gauging the heinousness of the crime. The victims in this case were elementary school students.
As far as the teacher in Ottawa, she should do time as far as I'm concerned.

The story does not say but the fact that they are children may be irrelevant to this individual. They were simply an easy target. Perhaps, if he worked in a seniors home, he would be playing the tasting game with grandma.
The cache of 400 photos being reviewed by authorities includes head shots or pictures of smiling children and other more disturbing images of children gagged or blindfolded or both, according to sources who have seen them.

I didn't note the age of the OP. And the line we legally draw at 18 is a bit arbitrary so I agree on that point.
But from reading forums (not just this one) when a female teacher is involved with a male student, it tends to be sluffed off more than the other way around.

You didn't note the age of the OP? Because there WAS no one age in the OP, there were classfuls of students. Did you read it?
I don't get why you are guys are even bringing any other abuse cases in trying to compare.

There were no ages noted,in fact I don't even know if they specified only one gender, but as it's an elementary school it's not too difficult to surmise that they are younger than 17.
I don't disagree that there is often a double standard, but, and all due respect here sincerely, I'm thinking this is not the case to be making that comparison. Were it a story about a male high school teacher and a few 16, 17 or 18 year old girls, then it would be a valid comparison. That's just my opinion.
To my way of thinking, this particular fiend was also getting off on the degradation of his victims.

I missed the elementary part. My bad. And I do see the difference in the crime based upon age. And again, I was simply discussing and was not in any way trying to say this case is not disgusting or degrading to the victims.

Not really. It depends on the context. I'm not saying the guy isn't a sick ****.
