Pennsylvania school officials said Friday that a high school teacher has been charged with eight felonies including institutional sexual assault that included a student.
Melissa Bonkoski, 38, an earth science teacher at Owen J. Roberts High School in Pottstown was charged with eight felonies on Thursday. The charges include “three counts of institutional sexual assault, three counts of unlawful contact with a minor; one count of corruption of minors and one count of criminal use of a communication facility,” according to the Daily Local.
Bonkoski allegedly became "obsessed" with a 16-year-old student and used a "burner phone," or a prepaid phone, to talk to him.
“Whatever you do, please don’t shut me out,” Bonkoski texted the student in March, according to the Daily Local. “I’m begging you.”
Bonkoski told a Pennsylvania State Trooper that she "thought she was being smart" to use a burner phone so officials could not trace it back to her.
Bonkoski is slated to appear for a preliminary hearing Thursday. Bonkoski posted $80,000 bond herself. The charges date back to Dec. 1, 2015, according to court records.
Bonkoski allegedly allowed the teenage student to kiss her and touch her breasts, according to a criminal complaint. The complaint that was received by county Detective Christine Beiler said the teenager was receiving "harassing text messages" from the teacher.
“He was worried that he wouldn’t get rides home anymore if he stopped kissing [Bonkoski],” according to the complaint. The student said that he had slept over at Bonkoski's house and the two spoke about oral sex. He claimed he tried to cut off contact with the teacher but she continued to call him.
Bonkoski was interviewed on July 11 about her relationship with the student by a state police trooper. Troopers said she "admitted to her conduct with the teenager," the affidavit stated.
The case is currently being investigated.
BONKOSKI! You are off the force!
Wow, this story just came hot and fresh off the press. It's August for shit sakes! Granted, our gurl here isn't exactly a looker, she is more of the plain Jane, wheel-her and deal her type; a cougar nonetheless out in the wild among the tender teen meat.
Bonus points, though, being the second candidate of our new blog series Hot For Teacher, Melissa Bonkoski makes the case that your name, can indeed, be your destiny!
What happened, little Jonny? "Oh nothing, just bonked Ms Bonk-O-ski!"
Our gurl came outta the cage... and hit hard, I mean, she hit the trifecta of Teacher Sex Scandal medals of honor: “three counts of institutional sexual assault, three counts of unlawful contact with a minor; one count of corruption of minors and one count of criminal use of a communication facility,” For a grand total eight, count'em EIGHT felony charges! You know what they say, when your looks start to fade...you just have to work harder at your job.
Our gurl, Bonkoski, pulled a Heisenberg, and even went as far as to use a 'burner phone' so as to get closer to her drug of choice: a 16-year-old student. A true entrepreneur in the realm of teacher-student illegality.
Every inch of Fox Newsline above suggests that Bonkoski was indeed, thirsty AF. And at 38, as a woman, the earth and pool of young men, willing to pitch a tent in or outside of you, gets drier by the day. Earth to Bonkoski, it's time to take a long hike! Hand in your lanyard and gym whistle, because where you are probably going, yard time and recess will be limited.
The Report Card
Methodology: Bonkoski actually did what every thirsty teen boy would do: smother their love interest. Every relationship has a leader and a power-bottom, Bonkoski decided to flip the script and it didn't pay off. How embarrassing... 'talks of oral', kissing? Really? All the other female teachers involved in sex scandals will surely look down upon our gurl in prison. She was way too thirsty, and that my friends will even scare the horniest of 15-year olds; especially if you are a cougar in the vast wilderness of bangable teachers. For Bonkoski's age, you'd think she would have more Game and experience. Truly disappointing.
C-
Integrity: This is a hard one, because our girl seemed to have worked so tediously for love that she fell too hard, and failed in epic fashion (eight felony charges). But that name....Bonkoski, she sure lived up to it. And for that, we have to give accolades. Plus, she left a trail of evidence with texts from her burner phone! She told police, "I thought I was being smart". Admitting you're stupid and owning up to your behavior is a very adult thing to do.
B+
Presentation/looks: The story is so fresh and new that there are very few pictures of Bonkoski. This is a travesty, as we all know women past 35 don't exactly have panache for social media. If some surface, we will surely update this post. For now, we have to assume bang-ability....but her thirstiness could be viewed as a leading indicator of sub-par, maybe even, satisfactory aesthetics. Also, being an 'Earth Science teacher' doesn't look like any points can be pre-maturely added. How many hot-ass 'earth science' teachers are there? Probably not many.
