60-year-old Florida science teacher Adrienne Laflamme was arrested for having a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old student. Laflamme then encouraged the boy to lie about the month-long relationship so that she could avoid losing her job and retirement benefits. The call was monitored by the police.
