Middle school teacher allegedly had sex with student — then stalked him when he dumped her
A Colorado middle school teacher is accused of having sex with a troubled teenage student for more than a year — and then stalking him when he dumped her.
Teresa Whalin, a 28-year-old health teacher in suburban Denver, allegedly admitted to cops that she’d been in a sexual relationship with the student — as well as exchanging nude photos and making fake phone numbers to anonymously call him, according to an arrest affidavit obtained by the Denver Post.
The boy — who had been cutting himself while struggling with his mental health — was 12 years his teacher’s junior, according to the docs, suggesting he was around 14 when they started having sex in April 2023.
The confused student described their relationship as “dating,” saying he and his teacher exchanged racy Snapchat messages, went out to eat and spent time together in her classroom at Ranch View Middle School in Highlands Ranch.
But the boy eventually cut off contact — with the twisted teacher then stalking him because she “struggled with the breakup,” according to the affidavit.
She would drive around the student’s home and show up on his route to and from school, scaring him enough that he felt forced to take different routes or get rides with friends’ families, the docs said.
