A female school employee in Pahrump was arrested Friday for engaging in a sexual relationship with a 16-year-old male student, Nye County Sheriff’s officials said.
Amanda McGough, 31, worked as a substitute teacher and administrative aide at Pahrump Valley High and Rosemary Clark Middle School and had been involved with the student since April, officials said.
Officials said the investigation began on Friday when the student-teacher relationship was brought to the attention of Nye County Sheriff’s officials.
McGough admitted to the relationship when she was questioned about it, officials said.
McGough was booked at the Nye County Detention Center on charges of unlawful sexual conduct between a school employee and pupil, open and gross lewdness and unlawful use of a minor as a subject of sexual portrayal, officials said.
Officials said that while state law says it is legal for a 16-year-old to have consensual sex with adults, it prohibits relationships with teachers.







So, they have a good Sex education class in Parhump High School!!
A person goes thru school, studies, tests, etc. Gets a bachelor degree. Goes thru the licensing process for teachers..background check, interviews for position....
Throws it all away to get involved with a 16 year old when you know it's going to cost you everything. Thinking you can keep it quiet?
Stupidity just reigns.
The heart wants what the heart wants
Can I stay after school???????
