A guidance counselor from a West Los Angeles high school faces sexual assault charges after she allegedly had a relationship with one of her students earlier this year.
On Thursday, the LA County District Attorney charged Julie Elizabeth Tichon with three felony counts of unlawful sexual intercourse with a minor more than three years younger and one felony count of oral copulation of a person under 18.
She faces a maximum of six years in state prison if convicted as charged. She pleaded not guilty during her arraignment on Thursday. The court released her on her own recognizance as she waits for her next court date on Nov. 1.
Likewise. I bet he wasn’t complaining either.
Well that’s not the point at all.
I totally would have nailed my guidance counselor. 🤷
Do we have to have this comment every time the victim is male? Have some respect. Men can experience rape too.
They sure can, and as a male who has been on the receiving end of sexual abuse from women, I understand the difference. Of course, we probably won’t get any additional details about this case. It’s not like the male in question is going to be making a press statement.
Regardless though, she was in a position of power. Even in a state where the age of consent was 16, this is still inappropriate.
While I may come off as indifferent, coercive behavior isn’t cool.
