Pennsylvania English Teacher Uses Twitter Account to Sends Nude Photos, Video to Student: DA

A former Pennsylvania English teacher posted bail after an investigation uncovered that she sent nude photos and a video of a sex act to a 17-year-old student through a private Twitter account.

Stephanie France Luckey, 37, taught English at Muhlenberg High School in Reading, Pennsylvania until she resigned over the summer while under investigation for an inappropriate sexual relationship with her male student, said the Berks County District Attorney’s office.

County detectives learned of the alleged relationship in June, said the DA’s office. In April, Luckey created a private Twitter account so that she and the boy could privately converse with each other, said investigators.

Between April and June, the conversations turned sexual, said investigators.

"The defendant sent Victim No. 1 five to 10 partially nude and nude photographs of herself," said the DA in a news release. "Also, the defendant sent a video recording of herself performing a sexual act."

The boy, in interviews in June and July, also told investigators that he and Luckey would kiss in her classroom after school, said investigators.

Luckey admitted the allegations to investigators in early July, said the DA’s office. She resigned a month later.

The Richlandtown woman turned herself in Tuesday afternoon to face charges of corruption of a minor, having sexual contact with a minor and unlawful contact with a minor, said court records. She posted $25,000 bond and was released from jail ahead of a preliminary hearing next month.

Muhlenberg High and Luckey’s attorney Matthew Kopecki didn’t return calls for comment.
