US teacher arrested for sexually abusing 13-year-old student and having his baby

An elementary school teacher in the United States has been arrested for allegedly having a child with one of her former students, 13, who lived with her for several years. According to the New York Post, Laura Caron, a fifth-grade teacher at a New Jersey elementary school, allegedly had an “inappropriate sexual relationship” with the student when they lived together in her home between 2016 and 2020, the Cape May County Prosecutor’s Office said in a press release. 

Caron first met her victim when she taught him and his brother in the fifth grade. The cops said that the boy, born in 2005, and his family remained close to her, and the boy’s parents even allowed their sons and daughter to spend some nights at Caron’s home before the children stayed there permanently in 2016 for some time, the outletreported. 

During that time, Caron allegedly had “inappropriate sexual relations” with her former student and later became pregnant. She gave birth to the child in 2019, the prosecutor’s office said, adding that when their child was born, the alleged victim was 13 years old while Caron was 28.  

Investigators became aware of the alleged sexual abuse after the boy’s father pointed out similarities between Caron’s child, himself and his son after seeing a Facebook post in December. The boy’s sister also told prosecutors that she remembered going to sleep with her brother in the same room, but woke up to find him sleeping in Caron’s bed, the outlet reported. She claimed that Caron began sleeping with her brother when he was 11 years old.
