Denise Keesee Pleads Guilty To Sexually Abusing 16-Year-Old Male Student

This type of case keeps gaining momentum in the media, and this particular case seems so familiar considering the age of student victims. The way that this case differs is that the husband got involved by threatening the victims with a gun. Hopefully the victims get the help that they need to recover from this situation. The article below goes into further detail about the case.

A former math and special education teacher at an Oregon high school has pleaded guilty to sexually abusing a 16-year-old student.

Denise Keesee, 39, faced six counts of second-degree sexual abuse involving two former students. On Monday she pleaded guilty to two counts involving one student. She is scheduled to be sentenced on April 21, according to Oregon Live.

Prosecutors alleged that the woman abused victims at her home, at the boys' homes, and at Sherwood High School, where she taught in a program for at-risk youth.

A lawsuit filed by one boy's family claimed that Keesee groomed her victim while she was his instructor at a program for troubled teens at the school in 2006.

According to the station:

The suit also alleged that Keesee’s husband, then the school’s police liaison officer, threatened the boy with a gun after learning about the sexual relationship.
