Teacher arrested for sexual relationship with student

COTTONWOOD, Ariz. - A charter school biology teacher has been arrested for allegedly having a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old male student.

Emili Kay Daniels, a teacher at the American Heritage Academy, was arrested after the school's principal called the Yavapai County Sheriff's Office to report the relationship.

The principal told officers that he'd gone to Daniel's classroom to speak to her, but the door was locked.

When he unlocked the door, he saw Daniels and the student, whose pants were undone, exposing his underwear.

Both Daniels and the student initially denied they had a sexual relationship.

The student admitted the next day that he'd had a relationship with Daniels beginning in October 2008, and that they'd had three sexually-related encounters beginning in November.

Authorities are reviewing text messages and e-mails between the two.

Daniels was arrested Thursday and charged with three counts of sexual conduct with a minor.

    Not be happy about this if I was a parent and this was my kid. Can you say lawsuit? She violated the publics trust in her. She is a predator. Same crime as a man exactly but with a different sentence? What is up with that?

    But the fact is she is a molester and should be in jail like a man would be for 10 years. Totally ridiculous.
