ALBANY, Ga. -- A high school English teacher resigned after school officials found notes and a racy poem she allegedly wrote to a 17-year-old student.
"It pleases me that you want me as much as I want you," read one of the 13 notes attributed to Carla Murray, 32. The notes were found in the male student's locker after other students tipped authorities.
One note included a poem: "The smell of your cologne mixed w/sweat/ The sounds you make while - / The touch of your hands/ The taste of your mouth,/ There's more, but I won't embarrass myself by mentioning them."
The notes were obtained Tuesday by TV station WALB, which sued to have them made public. The notes were unsigned, but school investigators concluded Murray wrote them after a handwriting expert read the notes aloud to Murray and had her rewrite them.
Albany Police will review the letters to see if criminal charges are warranted, Capt. Charlie Poole said Wednesday. He didn't elaborate. A state professional review is scheduled in June, and Murray could lose her teaching certificate.
Especially worrisome to officials were the notes written after the alleged relationship ended.
"I hate to see you flirting," one note read, and, "I'll try not to be super stalker for a few days."
In another letter: "I hope you don't mind if I keep tabs on you. ... So if I look mad ... it's really sadness you're looking at."
Murray's attorney, Howard Stiller, said Murray was a dedicated professional, although he wouldn't talk about specifics of the case.
