A female teacher reportedly "paid" for her teenage student's gas money in an attempt to keep their affair going while her husband was away from home.
McKenna Kindred, 27, avoided jail after having sex with the 17-year-old student back in November 2022. After months of online flirting the encounter between Kindred and the student lasted for an alleged three-and-half hours.
Taking place at Kindreds Spokane home in Washington, US, the teacher brought the minor into her residence while her lawyer husband was out of town. The Daily Mail reports the victim's mother told police she remembered her son received gas money through Venmo from a teacher.
The victims mother said the transaction was kind of inappropriate and added she didnt know which teacher had sent him the money or why he had received the funds. But the encounter eventually came to light after an unidentified friend of the victim accessed the message between the student and Kindred.
The unidentified friend then proceeded to take screenshots of the conversation between the victim and Kindred. After taking the screenshots the unnamed student reported the incident to another teacher. The teacher then reported the matter to the police.
In messages between Kindred and the victim the teacher referenced instances where the couple's affair had almost been uncovered. One text from Kindred read: We almost got caught. I was sad when that student walked in when he did.
She added: I wanted you to hold me. I really like being touched by you.
It is understood Kindred was still married to her husband at the time of the affair. Whispers of the relationship had allegedly spread around Central Valley High School, where the incident took place, the Daily Mail reports.
At around the time of the alleged encounter, the victim messaged Kindred using the pet name "mom" and spoke of being able to "satisfy" his teacher. One text read: Mom glad I can satisfy you.
In the state of Washington the age of consent is 16. Despite this adults in a position of authority can still be charged with sexually abusing minors under 18 who are in their care. In December 2022 Kindred was arrested and would later admit to first-degree sexual misconduct.
Later in March 2024 the disgraced teacher pleaded guilty to amended charges of second-degree sexual misconduct with a minor and communication with a minor for immoral purposes. Kindred was sentenced in Spokane County Superior Court to 24 months' probation and was ordered to pay $700 in fines and fees. She was also required to register as a sex offender for 10 years.
