This is sick - locking women up for having sex with 17 year olds.
I'm sure there are far worse things 17 year olds can do than have sex.

A female teacher at Kentlake High School is facing felony charges for allegedly having sex with one of her 17-year-old students.
Barbara Jeanne Anderson, 37, was booked into King County Jail last Thursday for felony investigation of sexual misconduct with a minor, according to the King County Sheriff’s Office. She was released the next day, pending charges.
Anderson was the student’s math teacher and after-school tutor during his sophomore year, according to court documents.
School officials first contacted the Sheriff’s Office on March 8 after the boy’s mother approached Kentlake staff members. The mom reportedly became suspicious about the relationship after seeing an inordinate number of text messages between her son and the teacher. Anderson allegedly texted the boy roughly 800 times, including more than 100 texts in a 24 hour period.
The student also told his uncle that “he was getting laid by a teacher,” according to court documents.
An investigation ensued and the teacher was soon arrested.
She's been placed on administrative leave and the case is being forwarded to the Prosecutor’s Office for formal charges.
According to the Sheriff’s Office, the statute used in this case is written to prohibit teachers or other school employees from having sexual intercourse with students who are 16 or 17 years old when the employee is at least 60 months older than the student.
