72. Facts will determine whether she coerced the 17 year old

or whether he willingly engaged in sexual with her. As thing are, she violated the law against teacher-student romance.

While she is a decade older than the 17 year old, she is still young. The great majority of 17 year olds have had sex by that age and eventhough they may not be capable of handling the emotional side of sex, the physical side is familiar to them. I know in my case, my High School had a number of very attractive 23-24 year old female teachers and pretty much every male student that I knew had sexual fantasies for them - and I was among the nerd crowd, being a high grade point average student, I can only imagine what the jocks were saying.
