Former teacher Mary Kay Letourneau (leh-TUR’-noh), who made headlines after she had sex with her 12-year-old student, is back in jail in Seattle.
KIRO reports that she was arrested Sunday night and booked into the King County Jail early Monday for failing to appear in court for a suspended driver’s license case. She was held with bail set at $5,000.
The Burien teacher became tabloid fodder in the 1990s when she was convicted of raping the sixth-grade boy when she was 34. She served a prison sentence and married her former student, Vili Fualaau, in 2005 when he was 22.
