Teachers make mistakes. They are human. However, when a teacher makes a mistake, it can have larger consequences since children are often times involved. In Elk Grove, California, Crystal Defanti sent a DVD home with the children at the end of the year. Unfortunately, Ms. Defanti had 6 seconds or so of Ms. Defanti engaged in a sex act on the DVD. The Elk Grove Unified School District asked the families to return or get rid of the DVD. It is unknown from news report what penalties (if any) will be handed down to Ms. Defanti for distributing such a video. Whether you are a teacher or any other person, it is never a good idea to have yourself video taped while having sex. I am sure that Ms. Defanti wished that the video clip never existed in the first place. You can read more about this story at California Teacher Mistakenly Sends DVD with Sex Act Out to Her Students.
