Male Teen Files Lawsuit After He Had Lots Of Sex With Biology Teacher And She Bought Him An Xbox

Font Size:

The mother of a male teenager who repeatedly had sex with his high school biology teacher is now suing the teacher and the Los Angeles school district for monetary damages.

The teacher at the center of the lawsuit is Michelle Yeh. She is currently in prison.

Previously, Yeh was a temporary science teacher at San Pedro High School.

Police say Yeh, 29, had sex with a small gaggle of male teenagers.

Around the end of the school year, police say, she “reached out to” the male students at the high school in a pleasant, fairly average seaside neighborhood of Los Angeles to arrange “private meetings.”

Along with his mother, the unidentified student who is suing Yeh alleges that the teacher plied him with alcohol, marijuana and Xanax, reports the Long Beach Press-Telegram.

The student was 15 at the time of the summer fling with his science teacher. He is 16 now.

Yeh also showered the teen with gifts, the suit claims. The gifts included an Xbox 360, some video games and some athletic shoes.

In addition, the suit states, Yeh took the 15-year-old student to Disneyland. The star-crossed pair also went out to eat at restaurants.

Sex romps between Yeh and the student occurred at school, in the teen’s home while his mother was gone and at “other locations in the community,” the suit says.

The affair ended in July when the student’s mother found out about it. It was also then when the teacher was arrested.

The lawsuit against Yeh and the taxpayer-funded school district — for negligence, breach of mandatory duty and sexual abuse — claims the teen has suffered “irreparable harm” because of the sex trauma.

Southern California television station KTLA interviewed one of the male students with whom Yeh had sex. (The student appears to be the same one involved in the lawsuit, though it’s not entirely clear.)

According to the student, he struck up a relationship with Yeh one day when hit her up for money for a bus ticket. She responded by buying him lunch and spotting him $10.

Yeh and the student first had sex when they went to his place to play video games, the student claimed.

“She started rubbing my face, calling me cute, handsome,” the teen told KTLA. “She started kissing me and from there we had sex.”

The teen said the summer affair didn’t turn out to be his idea of an exciting romance.

“Eat, go somewhere, come back, have sex,” he told the station. “I didn’t feel like I was in a relationship. I felt like I was kind of obligated.”

The student’s mother expressed shock.

“He’s a latchkey kid and she manipulated him in every sense of the word,” the mad mom told KTLA.

In January 2016, Yeh pleaded no contest to a throng of felony and misdemeanor charges involving two 15-year-old students as well as a 16-year-old student. (RELATED: High School Science Teacher Arrested For Victimizing Teens With Sex, Trip To Disneyland)

Yeh was sentenced to four years in prison. She had faced a maximum prison sentence of nine years and eight months.

The Los Angeles school district hired Yeh as a long-term substitute at San Pedro High in February 2015.

When she is released from prison, Yeh will be required to register as a sex offender for her entire life.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
