Michelle Solis, 46, pled no contest after being accused of raping a 14-year-old student on the child’s eighth grade graduation day in 2021.
A press release from District Attorney Mike Ramsey indicated that Solis, who was a 20-year veteran educator, raped the 14-year-old inside a locked classroom on graduation day, Daily Mail reported. Solis also allegedly sent explicit photos to the boy which “made their way back to local parents," facilitating the investigation by police.
Solis, who was the boy’s teacher at the middle school, “friended” him on Instagram a few weeks prior to his graduation. Records indicate that was the start of her inappropriate relationship in which she allegedly sent him four inappropriate images. Then, on the day of his graduation from Sycamore Junior High School in northern California, she raped him.
That seems like a horrible graduation gift if you ask me.
Solis was arrested last November and released on $15,000 bail. She’s technically free right now until her sentencing hearing, scheduled for June 6. As part of the agreement and her no contest plea, “she agreed to register as a sex offender.”
It’s likely that she’ll only face as much as four years in state prison.
Unfortunately, Solis’ case isn’t rare and is part of an ongoing trend of female teachers raping their students.
In March, a Texas teacher faced a series of grooming and sexual assault charges that could involve up to 12 young boys. Reports indicate that she bought young boys vaping accessories, got them intoxicated and then raped them. To add to the story, after resigning as a science teacher, the woman told officials she was pregnant.
In February, a 24-year-old teacher from Minnesota admitted to having sex with one of her 18-year-old students. Since she lived with her parents, the teacher admitted to bringing the student to a hotel room a “handful” of times for sex.
Additionally in February, a 25-year-old teacher from the Richmond, Va. area pled guilty to four counts of carnal knowledge and one count of indecent liberties of a minor. She engaged in sexual relations with her 14-year-old student, sneaking into his home and into his bed to rape him.
Sadly, those are just a few of the recent examples of how absolutely out of touch with reality these teachers are. It’s heartbreaking to see that their delusional sense of what they consider appropriate behavior is harming countless innocent children in these ways.
If you needed another reason to homeschool, this would be a good one to consider.
