Disgusting.

background info on MKL

Mary Kay Letourneau
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Mary Kay Letourneau (born January 30, 1962), née Mary Katherine Schmitz, is a former American teacher. She is known for having a sexual relationship with an underage pupil, Vili Fualaau. She has been convicted of statutory rape.

Mary Kay Schmitz married Steve Letourneau on June 30, 1984. The couple had two daughters and two sons together.

Mary Kay's father was John G. Schmitz, a Congressman from Orange County, California. He was generally considered one of the more conservative members of the House, and ran for the Presidency in 1972 on the American Independent Party ticket.

Letourneau first met Vili Fualaau (born June 24, 1983) when he was a student in her second-grade class at Shorewood Elementary School in Burien, Washington. He was seven years old; she was 27. She was his teacher again in the sixth grade, and the relationship became sexual as he entered seventh grade. Her husband discovered her relationship with Fualaau when he read her love letters to him in February, 1997, and revealed it to family members: a cousin reported the relationship to child protective services and Mary Kay was arrested for statutory rape on February 26, 1997. Four months later she gave birth to a daughter fathered by her student. On August 7, 1997 she pled guilty to two counts of second-degree statutory rape. She was sentenced to spend 80 more days in jail, and enrolled in a sexual deviancy treatment program. She was released from jail early (January 6, 1998), for good behavior, and was forbidden from seeing Fualaau.

On February 3, 1998 police discovered Letourneau having sexual intercourse in a car with Fualaau and arrested her for violating the conditions of her suspended sentence. She had also failed to complete her sexual deviancy treatment program. The original sentence of 89 months was reimposed.

In March, 1998, it was revealed that Letourneau was again pregnant with Fualaau's child: their second daughter was born in October 1998.

Steve Letourneau filed for divorce in May 1999 and has custody of his four children. He moved to Alaska and lives under a different last name.

The sentence imposed on Mary Kay Letourneau was the subject of much debate: because the abused child was male some consider the offense lesser than if he were female: the law does not. Mary Kay's subsequent comments make clear that she believes she has done nothing wrong.

In 2000 Fualaau's family sued the town he attended school in for emotional suffering, lost wages, and the costs of rearing his two children, claiming the school had failed to protect him for Letourneau's sexual advances. The jury found against them and no damages were awarded.

Mary Kay and Vili Fualaau wrote a book together, Un seul crime, l'amour which was published in France.

Mary Kay Letourneau was released on parole on August 4, 2004. On 6 August, 2004 Fualaau, who was by then 21, applied to the court to raise the no-contact order; the request was granted.

They're registered at Macy's. They showed it on GMA this morning, and my coworkers and I looked it up. They registered for some ugly dishes!

Here's the link

TxAPhi 02-14-2005 04:32 PM

only in america....
 
I tried to find it on theknot.com this morning but nothing turned up then. Wow! It looks like they already have almost everything on there! That is a very "festive" pattern for their causal china.... :)

kddani 02-14-2005 04:41 PM

Yeah, as of this morning practically nothing had been purchased.

SmartBlondeGPhB 02-14-2005 10:39 PM

Tonight's newscast announced where they were registered more than once and the resident editorial-ist (that may not be a word) had a monologue about the wedding tonight.

I guess that's not really the date (according to an interview that I noticed on Court TV with a friend of hers) but they had to pick a date.

Oh and they are working on selling the rights to the wedding to the media. But then again, they need money somehow since neither has a job.........

I guess the job market isn't booming for convicted child molesters - I HOPE!!!

Probably FOX. They can put it on right after the next installment of "Who's Your Daddy?"

valkyrie 02-15-2005 01:05 PM

Eh, good for them. He's an adult now.

Truth.

Plus, she's paid her debt to society.

Personally, I think some of y'all are hating because OMGWTFBBQ she's ENGAGED and you're not.

BetteDavisEyes 02-15-2005 04:45 PM

Again you show us your brilliance by replying to the topic with a standard insult to those who don't share your opinion.
However, if you're so interested in the marital status of others here in GC, I'll let you know that I am engaged. Wedding date is December 2nd. Just found the dream dress yesterday too! :D First one I found & the first one I tried on. I have already booked a place too!

kddani 02-15-2005 05:14 PM

for those of you who think this is all wonderful... would you have the same opinion if it was a old man who had molested a female child?

And to say that those of us who think this is wrong are hatin' because we're not engaged... umm... no. That's the same logic that people used and said that those of us who don't really care for Britney Spears (for example) are just jealous b/c she's so beautiful/talented/etc.

Sorry if I have moral issues with this. Has nothing to do with my, or any other poster's, marital status.

Holy shit you missed the point of el munch's post


On a separate note, I honestly couldn't care less about this, dudes - although I see where dani is coming from, even if the genders are reversed this comes down to two legal, consenting adults performing a legal action. She's paid her debt, and he's now well past 18. They might be total pieces of shit, sure - but pieces of shit get married every day.

God, I can't even imagine the threads when she has their next baby . . .

Lol, she's already had 2 to him, from when he was well underage.

Plus 4 from her first marriage (she was sleeping with him while still married!)

Yes, technically it's legal, but there's a lot of things that are technically legal that are still sorta sick. And if you're going to put yourself out there, you're in the public spotlight and are going to get some flack for it.

I do see where you're coming from - it's just no longer a moral issue for me. In fact (channeling James), in a lot of other situations, this would be considered the 'honorable' thing to do - it's an interesting study in temporal/situational differences in how things are viewed, for sure.

FSUZeta 02-15-2005 06:50 PM

shocking
 
in an interview on the today show, a "friend" of mary kay said that they were all surprised that news of the engagement had leaked out. did they not realize that would happen once they registered for gifts at macy's? puh-lease!!!

kdonline 02-19-2005 04:53 AM

I just checked out weddingchannel.com - there used to be a guestbook for them on there, but it seems to have been taken down.

Most of their registry has been purchased @ Macy's, but their Crate&Barrel one has lots available.

And I also see that they have also registered at Tiffanys. That wasn't there when I saw the site last week.

!!!!

I'm sorry, but what are people like that doing registering at Tiffany's? I'm guessing that they're figuring random ass people across the US are buying them stuff, so why not see how stupid people can really be.....:rolleyes:

What does "people like that" mean?

It's not as if Tiffany screens who registers--and anyone can do it online.

------------

In response to what a few people asked...yes, at this point, it would be the same to me if the genders were reversed. Not only has MKL done her time, he was the one who requested that the no-contact order be lifted. Despite numerous attempts to separate the two, they still found a way to be together. Now that they're adults, there's nothing any of us can say about it.

Hell, I don't think it's "wonderful," in fact it's a little creepy, but I'm not stressing about it.

James 02-19-2005 02:58 PM

If they are getting married . . why did we put her in jail?

the law as really intended to protect younger people against predators not love interests . .

So all we did was take her away from her family for like 7 years.

See what happens when you legislate social situations?

PhiPsiRuss 02-19-2005 07:18 PM

This whole thing about the kid having sex with his teacher is bad, but it could have been much worse. He could have been home schooled. :eek:

pinkyphimu 02-19-2005 08:02 PM

i think it is kind of creepy. while i agree that when he was 12, this relationship was clearly a problem, but he is an adult now and can make his own decisions. i honestly feel more concern for their children and her children from her first marriage. what a crazy situation to grow up in!

Taualumna 02-19-2005 10:18 PM

I'm watching E! True Hollywood Story, and apparently Mary Kay Letourneau is Greek.....she joined a sorority when she was at Arizona State

:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

Tom Earp 02-19-2005 11:55 PM

Love is Blind, so who should really care!:rolleyes:

I dont go for either of them!:(

BUT, If Happy, leave it be!
