Louisiana Teacher Arrested, Accused Of Having Sex With Student For A Year

A Louisiana high school geography teacher was arrested Friday on charges of sexual conduct with a 16-year-old female student, according to the Daily Mail.

Police began investigating Kimberly Naquin, who works at Destrehan High School, in St. Charles Parish, after receiving a tip-off from a family member of the female teen.

Naquin, 26, is the daughter of the St. Charles Parish School Board President Dennis Naquin, and her mother, Karen Naquin, is also a teacher in the area, according to The Times-Picayune.

A statement from the Sheriff's office noted that most of the encounters took place at Naquin's previous home in Kenner, but "an undetermined amount of incidents occurred within St. Charles Parish at a Destrehan High School classroom and a Destrehan residence."

Police said that Naquin, also a cosponsor of the school's Beta Club chapter, began the illicit relationship with the teen in September 2014, which carried through August 2015, the New York Daily News reported.

The fourth-year teacher faces charges of carnal knowledge of a juvenile and prohibited conduct between educator and student. She is being held on a $75,000 bond, and according to court records, her next court appearance is scheduled for Feb. 18.

The school system moved to suspend Naquin without pay while the accusations against her are being investigated, according to The NY Daily News.

Naquin's arrest comes just a few months after two of her colleagues at the same school, Shelly Dufresne and Rachel Respess, were accused of having a threesome with a 16-year-old boy, as HNGN previously reported.
