Exemplary Dallas ISD teacher fired over porn past says she endured 'sex slavery,' pleads for job
A Dallas ISD teacher who was fired because she acted in adult films more than a decade ago says she was forced into sex slavery and is fighting to get back her dream job helping children.
Resa Woodward, 38, taught sixth-grade science at an all-girls STEAM academy at Balch Springs Middle School before she was removed from the classroom in November. She was fired after her past in adult films was exposed on social media. She is appealing her termination to the Texas Education Agency.
