Middle school teacher arrested for sending pornography to student


 

St. Petersburg, Florida — The investigation began after the boy told an adult relative about the relationship with a teacher, 32 year old Christy Lynn Martin. The relative told the boy’s mother, who in turn notified the St. Petersburg Police Department.

St. Petersburg Police Department detectives conducted their investigation throughout the day and discovered photographs of a pornographic nature from the teacher that were sent to the boy’s cellular phone. The boy told investigators that he had been involved in a relationship with Martin, but the exact details of that relationship are not clear at this point.

Later that afternoon, detectives interviewed Martin and she admitted to sending the pornographic photographs to the 14-year-old boy. She was arrested on one count of transmitting pornographic images through an electric device and one count of transmitting material harmful to a minor, with a $20,000 bond.

The investigation showed that Martin became employed as a full time teacher at Azalea Middle School in the fall of 2008 and that she previously worked there as a teacher assistant. The 14-year-old boy was not one of her students at the time of these allegations.

Why ”Don’t Say a Word About This!”


The book “Don’t Say a Word about This” exists because it seems no one is ready to take the banner and become the poster person for sexual abuse and other related sexual issues. It seems that no one is willing to put their life on the line for issues that polarize and paralyzed our society.

When is the last time you heard a sermon coming from a place of love on the issues of sex and sexuality? When is the last time you were able to talk to anyone about your questions concerning sex and sexuality? More than likely the answer to both questions for you is never. Why is that? It seems that most churches, church leaders, and church members are in agreement with the world concerning this matter – they will not intelligently discuss sex and sexuality without it becoming a heated discussion or bashing of someone.

These groups by being silent and secretive about sex and sexuality have in effect given much power to the men and women who supply pornography, sexual material, and related sexual subjects. The “Church,” church leaders, and members do not realize to be ignorant by choice only gives power to the enemy to use the ignorance as a weapon of mass destruction.

Each group that represents some form of organized religion or Christianity has misinterpreted the writings of one the chief writers of the Bible – the Apostle Paul. This misinterpretation has gone on for almost two thousand years, which conveniently works in the favor of those who make lots of money off sex and sexuality. You have to ask yourself why the “Church,” church leaders, and members allowed the church to be in the dark ages about sex and sexuality? Are these group leaders gaining some kind of financial remuneration for fostering ignorance?

Alternatively, is the posture of some in the “Church,” and some church leaders to protect the elite who do as they want in matters of sex and sexuality and leave the rest of the group to fiend for themselves?

The Father gave me a call to expose, uncover, and reveal sex and sexuality in a loving and caring way to people who are in the church and out of it. The book “Don’t Say a Word About This” constitutes three sources of information: 1) A complete review of the Holy Bible on all issues of sex and sexuality, 2) Review of over three hundred secular books and films, and 3) Vignettes from counseling sessions and other life situations as examples of reality.

Can a brother get some help? The way you can help is by telling your “Church,” your Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor, Teacher, or Priest, your friends, your enemies and others about this blog.
