INCIDENT RAISES QUESTIONS ABOUT CONFLICTING SOUTH CAROLINA LAWS …
A teacher in Spartanburg, S.C. is facing multiple criminal charges after allegedly performing oral sex on a then-16-year-old student on three separate occasions.
Alexandra McClure – a Spanish teacher at Byrnes High School – resigned last week and will appear in court on May 19 to answer to three counts of “sexual battery with a student.”
More on that charge in a moment …
According to police, the as-yet-unidentified student began flirting with McClure in the fall of 2014 – giving her his cell phone number. Before long the two began “sexting” and video chatting with each other – and in October 2014 McClure performed oral sex on him three times (twice at her house and once in a parked car outside a high school football game).
McClure, 25, is a 2011 graduate of Clemson University. Here’s her mug shot …

The school – which reported the allegations to police – issued a statement following McClure’s arrest.
“The administration at Byrnes High School was informed of allegations of inappropriate contact between a female teacher and male students,” the school’s statement read. “Before administrators could complete the investigation, the teacher resigned her position with the district. As required under South Carolina law, the matter has been turned over to law enforcement and the South Carolina Department of Education for further investigation.”
Frankly, McClure’s resignation is where we believe this scandal should have ended. Why? Because her alleged “victim” was sixteen years old – meaning he had attained South Carolina’s legal age of consent for sexual activity.
In other words, the three blow jobs McClure gave him constituted sexual activity between two consenting adults.
Does this excuse McClure’s conduct? No. Does it mean she should keep her job? Of course not.
“There’s absolutely no circumstance in which it’s okay for a teacher to have sexual contact with a student,” we wrote a few years back in addressing another such scandal.
It’s an abuse of trust … and teachers who engage in such conduct deserve to be fired.
Our point is simply that McClure – who is facing fifteen years in jail on these three counts – does not deserve to be locked up for what she did. Not even for a day. We’ve said it before, we’ll say it again: Government shouldn’t spend tax dollars prosecuting and incarcerating people for what amounts to consensual sex.
If a teacher is involved in consensual sexual activity with a student who is fifteen years old or younger, then by all means – they should face criminal consequences for their actions in addition to losing their job.
But this case involves two consenting adults engaging in sexual behavior which – in virtually any other circumstance – would be perfectly legal. As it should be. The fact that one of them may go to jail for fifteen years as a result of such a consensual encounter is absolutely ridiculous.
What do you think? Do you agree with South Carolina’s law banning sex between teachers and students (even if students 16 years of age or older)? What about the punishments?
We look forward to reading your thoughts in our comments section below …

Present teacher excluded, where the hell were these broads when I was in high school??
They were probably still around, but the kids were most likely smart enough to keep their mouths shut.
Or too stupid to see what is right in front of you….
If I could only go back to 1968 when I was helping my science teacher clean out the equipment closet……
I’ve kicked myself so many times thinking about the move she made on me in that closet…..and I was a clueless 15 year old…FUCK!!!!
spark, we had a first year teacher that started my sophomore year in high school. she was pretty wild away from the school and i swear to this day (at least i’ve convinced myself) that she came on to me one day after school but i was too stupidnaive to know. damn!
With Taz and Corrupt.
*Our point is simply that McClure – who is facing fifteen years in jail on these three counts – does not deserve to be locked up for what she did.*
Whether it is exposing children to drugs with legalization or dismissing as normal an adult molesting a child,liberals that advocate for this perversion and sickness would think differently if one of their own children was involved.
I know, why can’t we defend the CHRISTIAN child molesters like J-Dug?
If it was a dude, he’d be murdered in jail for being a child molester. News like this used to have shock value.
Please tell me the kid was blind?!?!
For all we know the student could be even uglier than the teacher.
When I was that age, between the desire to lose your virginity and the way that pressure built up, I woulda hit it and been damn glad to get it.
Teenage hormones are stronger than beer goggles.
Damn straight!!!!
Here, here, the best post so far today.
#1 reason I started playing guitar in 9th grade, so I wouldn’t have to bed down ogre’s like this.
Lucky shit (pun intentional)! You were talented. The only playing I did that got me any relief was with myself.
Get caught doing that in class and get a trip to the principal’s office.
:-(
Bonus points if you hit her on the back of the leg from the front row.
And you could get the chicks to play with your trem? Get that chick to hit the high E? Play with their three-way switch? Tell you’re name was Les Paul? Restring the nut?
Sorry – couldn’t help myself.
Rocky, we know that Mrs. Rocky reads your posts. She knows that post is ….”foreplay”. Don’t count on dinner tonight!
You mean Quatro Jugar?
That’s right, then I turned her knobs up to 11!
Think about it for a minute
He was getting a blow job, right
Even in the weirdest of positions he either got a view of the top or her head and if you have seen one place to set your beer you have seen them all or he looked straight into her third eye, i.e. top or bottom 69
Hey, the worst BJ I’ve ever had was still fucking great………….
At my age, a “bad’ BJ is still something to look forward to!!!!
A fucking men!
she was bobbin his knob . he prolly put a paper bag wit da hole in it over da head
What I think is that when one party is in a position of authority over the other, it changes the legal dynamic. I suppose it would be ok if DJJ officers were having “consensual” sex with their 16 year old charges because, you know, 16 is the age of consent. Folks, you’re an idiot.
Prison guard/inmate sounds like a niche fetish.
Almost got there with my 10th grade Biology teacher that was 10 years older than me before she regained her senses. Ran into her 7 years later in a bar, getting drunk after one of many boyfriends dumped her. At the hotel it was exciting and weird all rolled into a big psychological mess. The next day she was a scary nut like a stage 5 clinger which any 22 year wants no part of. Crazy how things don’t turn out the way you fantasize.
But damnit, you got it! Pat yourself on the back, Taz. I had quite a few cougars, some serious LTR’s, but never a teacher. :-(
Same for you – time to start sharing one story a day in detail on dedicated thread. We can live through you’re oral history – no pun intended.
My tale has been posted here previously….
Your mom was a biology teacher?
He walked right into that one.
Please try harder next time. That was weaker than a popcorn fart. ;-(
LOL.
I wasted my time with a 40 year old in my early 20’s. It was great for me at least. We just wanted to hook up, get drunk and that’s it.
Women that age know what they are doing. The girls my age (at the time) were not as freaky.
Taz – you got the best stories. I think you should write them all done for us, one a day, on a dedicated thread.
I’m no Magic Johnson, but I have had more than my share of wild women and crazy circumstances that is for sure. I would trade it all to have had one stable wife for my entire life. It has always been short relationships of monogamy with wild debauchery in between. The current Ms. Taz is the longest I have ever been with one woman and I don’t see myself having a mid-life crisis so I’m pretty set for now.
edit: “crazy women and wild circumstances”
I’m in possession of a book that names names and doesn’t pull any punches.
What was our Creator thinking when He gave the hot and crazy ones all those skills?
?? — to test you and to make you a better man?
To give you something to smile about when flying with your wife on vacation?
That’s something to ponder right there…….
It’s the title of my new book. Men Are From Mars, Women from Venus (but the crazy hot ones are from Pluto)
You should get a collection (as I have) of very helpful books, such as —
“Did Mother Goose the Ancient Mariner?”
“Sexual Drive from Six to Ten and from Ten to Midnight”
“I Was a Groupie for Lawrence Welk”
“Selective Promiscuity for the Horny Housewife”
———-and many more
Was going to say, notice how wild women and crazy always end up together.
I think I am more shocked about how fancy that high school campus looks.
You should see Dorman.
Or River Bluff in Lexington.
Ever see Wando? It’s like a damn college campus and they still have freaking portables.
That school is way too big. Nearly 4,000 kids? That is nuts.
My son’s high school has a student population of around 1,300 and it sounds to me like the kids run the school, cannot even imagine a student body of 4000.
How do you even begin to manage that many kids?
i would hazard a guess, based on what I hear from my son, that about half of any given student body are manageable. Meaning that they come equipped with the respect for teachers, social skills and upbringing that allows them to maintain decorum. The other half may as well stay home.
There you go again, trying to make this all about Clemson. Sure we have plenty of pedophiles at Clemson, but they are the BEST!!!
Nah, those pedos can’t hold a candle to the ones at Ohio State. Go Buckeyes! LMAO!!!!!!!
Folks’ little frat boys (or Folks himself) too scared to use their own screen name so they steal mine. Will they ever grow up? Probably not.
Rocky is just auditioning for Kenny.
mcclure gives new meaning to head of the class
She’s got that thousand yard stare going on…not sure I could enjoy a good BJ with that look going on…but then again I’m not 17 anymore.
Come on now TB! At that age you would bust it twice before she could get that mustache peeled back all the way and still be up for round three. When I was that age I had to slam it in with my sock drawer a half dozen times before I could get my pants on.
Agreed, she should be fired and her teaching certificate revoked for violating her public trust. But, no jail time or prosecution for sex between consenting adults. Regardless of age differences or circumstances.
”…does not deserve to be locked up for what she did…”
“Damn straight, bet it was a good blow job.”
If it was a bad job, well, that something else. Maybe detention for her after school.
Poor woman, the affair has probably left a bad taste in her mouth for the education profession.
yep and blew any chances for getting another teaching job.
Was the fella named Tio?
only 59 comments . shocker
The hick teachers from BFE are always hornier . not enough big green donkey dicks to go around
Hey, If the 2 Bill C’s can get away with illegal sex, then why can’t the common man or woman get away with legal sex?
