Female High School Teacher Sex Offenders | Are they different than male sex offenders?

This video answers questions about female sex offenders and specifically about a type of female sex offender: a female offender that's a high school or elementary school teacher and has a relationship with a student. We see all these examples in the media like Katherine Murray, Stephanie Ragusa, Pamela Rogers, and probably among the most famous would be Deborah LaFave and Mary Kay Letourneau. There are actually hundreds more in the United States and in other countries. I will discuss what we know from the scientific literature about female sex offenders, including those who were high school teachers.
