Female teacher jailed for giving boy love bites

A Singapore court yesterday jailed a 42-year-old female teacher for six months for committing indecent acts on a 13-year-old boy studying in the same school, including giving him love bites.

The woman, a teacher for 11 years and a mother of four, had earlier pleaded guilty to two charges of sexual exploitation of a child or young person.

According to court documents, the woman, who cannot be named as it could lead to the identification of the victim, kissed the boy on his lips and gave him love bites on his shoulder and neck on two occasions in 2012.

She became acquainted with the boy, a football teammate of her son, and started to chat with him on Facebook, subsequently committing the acts during outings to public parks.

The boy’s mother filed a police report after discovering a love bite on his neck.

“In my view, implanting of love bites and kissing with her tongue into the victim’s mouth in a public park by the teacher were indecent, sexual and not appropriate,” district judge Ng Peng Hong said in a written judgement.

The defense claimed the woman was suffering from depression.

The woman could have been jailed for up to five years, fined 10,000 Singapore dollars (US$7,932) or both, for each of the two charges she faced.
