The teenage boy at the center of the Louisiana school threesome scandal is devastated that his bragging has ruined the promising careers of two teachers.
‘He is really down about it right now,’ the high school junior’s grandfather said.
‘All boys that age want to brag about what they are doing. He didn’t expect it would come to this.’ He added.
According to the Daily Mail the teachers, Rachel Respess, 24, and married mom-of-three Shelley Dufresne, 32, are currently out on bond awaiting trial for having sex with their student.
They are on unpaid leave from their jobs at Destrehan High School and are unlikely ever to return.
‘He feels really bad,’ said the boy’s grandfather. ‘These women have families and he knows how terrible it is for them. He knows they will never be able to teach again and could very well go to prison.
‘He just wishes the whole thing had never happened. It’s a shocking thing — a real shock for all of us — when you have teachers who should be educating doing this instead.’
MailOnline is not identifying the boy who turned 17 just days after the alleged ménage à trois as he is still a minor.
The boy is said to have had an ongoing affair with Dufresne, his 11th grade English teacher at Destrehan, a sleepy commuter town west of New Orleans.
According to police she picked him up after a Friday Night Lights high school football game on September 12 and drove him to Respess’s apartment in Kenner, Louisiana — where she had only moved two weeks previously after living with her parents.
Respess, a pretty blonde who used the name ‘CajunBabe’ for her email addresses, decided she needed freedom away from her parents’ upscale 3,900-sq. ft. home in Destrehan and moved 12 miles into a cramped apartment with peeling paint.
‘She only moved in at the end of August,’ a neighbor who would identify himself only as ‘Will,’ told MailOnline.
