Teacher who allegedly had baby with 13-year-old student admits to child sex crime — despite victim saying he wasn't raped

4 days 11 hours ago


A former elementary teacher in New Jersey pleaded guilty to a child sex crime after authorities alleged she gave birth to a baby fathered by one of her students when he was just 13 years old.

Laura Caron, a 36-year-old former elementary teacher, pleaded guilty Oct. 28 to the charge of second-degree endangering the welfare of a child with sexual conduct.

'I wasn't groomed or raped or manipulated by her. She never initiated anything. I started everything.'

The Cape May County Prosecutor's Office said in a statement that Caron's plea deal calls for a five-year New Jersey state prison sentence, but she is not scheduled to be sentenced until Jan. 8, 2027.

Caron also must forfeit her teaching license and all future public employment.

Following her prison sentence, Caron must register on the Megan's Law Offender Registry and is subject to parole supervision for the rest of her life.

Before her sentencing, Caron will be evaluated at the Adult Diagnostic and Treatment Center in Avenel for "classification to determine whether she is deemed repetitive and/or compulsive, which could impact her sentence."

As Blaze News previously reported, Caron was arrested in January 2025 and initially charged with sexual assault, aggravated sexual assault, and endangering the welfare of a child.

At the time, Caron was a fifth-grade teacher at Middle Township Elementary School in the community of Cape May Court House.

Police said Caron engaged in a years-long inappropriate relationship with the student beginning when he was just 11 years old and in her fifth-grade classroom.

The victim's mother allowed her children to stay overnight at Caron's home.

An affidavit states that the children's father "explained that it began with one or two nights a week and eventually the children stayed with Caron permanently, from 2016 to 2020."

WPVI-TV reported that the then-13-year-old victim fathered a baby with Caron in 2019.

The father of the baby was not immediately known following the birth.

However, the victim's father reportedly made an eyebrow-raising post on Facebook in December 2024 that raised questions about the child's paternity. The victim's father pointed out that there was an uncanny similarity in appearance between himself, his son, and Caron's young daughter.

Court TV reported that the superintendent saw the post, flagged it, and began an investigation — then when detectives interviewed the victim, he confirmed that he was in a sexual relationship with Caron and that he was the father of her child.

Based on interviews with the victim, prosecutors estimated that Caron had sexually abused the student a total of 416 times, according to Court TV.

Despite the allegations, the former student publicly defended Caron in February 2025 and demanded that prosecutors drop the charges against his former teacher.

"They need to drop all charges," the former student told the Daily Mail. "I wasn't groomed or raped or manipulated by her. She never initiated anything. I started everything."

He continued, "If it was up to me, she wouldn't have been in jail. It's been six or seven years. I'm 19, about to be 20."

Democrats wasted NO TIME going full mask-off after the election: ‘They’re saying the quiet parts out loud’

4 days 11 hours ago


Democrats spent the campaign talking about affordability and health care. But now that the votes are in, BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales says their priorities are becoming much clearer — and they have little to do with either.

“Now you guys are going to be shocked to hear, although all of these radical Democrats who campaigned on, ‘they just want to lower the cost of everything and they’re the ones to do it,’ and ‘they just want good health care,’ and ‘they just want to help the working class’ ... you’re going to be shocked to hear they are already letting the masks slip,” Gonzales says.

“We’re already getting a preview of what life is going to be like in the next couple of years under communist Democrat rule,” she continues.

“Their number one issue is to take down President Trump and everyone surrounding him. They promised they would weaponize the judicial system against us. And I kept saying like, ‘Guys, this is a preview. They’re saying the quiet parts out loud, maybe we should believe them,’” she adds.

Democrat Rep. Robert Garcia, who is likely to be the next chairman of the House Oversight Committee, even posted the message “lawyer up” on X.

“And he wasn’t the only one,” Gonzales says, noting that Ron Wyden simply posted “Supoenas,” on X, and Gavin Newsom wrote, “We cannot just turn the damn page on Donald Trump’s corruption. We must expose the grift, hold those responsible accountable.”

“Gosh, if I didn’t know any better, I would think that maybe they didn’t want to lower costs and, you know, fix health care after all. Maybe, just maybe, it’s been all about the authority and control,” Gonzales says.

“Maybe, just maybe, they want to weaponize everything against us, like they just had it under Joe Biden,” she adds.

But it’s not just the weaponization of the government that Republicans have to look forward to.

“Tonight, DEI is back as America celebrated diversity and inclusion. Likely three black governors, the first Latina governor in Texas, the first Muslim-American senator, the first gay senator. I love this America,” United States Rep. Ro Khanna said in a video clip posted to social media.

“Oh boy,” Gonzales comments. “I really want to know who my senator likes to sleep with.”

“It’s a ridiculous thing to say. It’s a ridiculous way to govern. But now it’s back,” she adds.

Gavin Newsom says death penalty is 'incompatible' with California values in massive commutation announcement

4 days 11 hours ago


Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom says he will commute the sentences for all California prisoners on death row.

The historic decision will be one of the last of his administration since he has been term-limited out of office.

'Faithfulness to our values is measured by how we act when it is most difficult to uphold them. For me, this is one of those instances.'

Newsom cited moral reasons for the decision in a lengthy statement Thursday.

"I firmly believe that state-sanctioned killing is incompatible with California's values, undermines the foundations of our legal system, and diminishes each of us," Newsom said in the statement.

"This decision is among the most difficult of my career, not because I doubt its necessity for our state but because I know its announcement may surface excruciating memories for victims' families," he added.

Newsom waited until after Election Day to make the announcement. Governor-elect Xavier Becerra (D) won the election easily against Republican Steve Hilton.

There are currently 548 people on death row in California, making it the largest death-row population in the Western Hemisphere, according to Newsom. They will now have a sentence of life in prison without the possibility of parole.

The state has also not executed anyone for two decades.

"We can now let these offenders die in obscurity while we forever remember and honor their victims," Newsom continued. "Faithfulness to our values is measured by how we act when it is most difficult to uphold them. For me, this is one of those instances."

Newsom has hinted that he is exploring a run for president in 2028, but he has said he will back off if Kamala Harris mounts another run for president.

"I wouldn't do that to her. I wouldn't do that to you. I wouldn't waste everyone's time," Newsom said to CNN's Jake Tapper as they both tried to fly-fish. "Who needs that?"
