NORMAN, Okla. - A former basketball coach and science teacher has been arraigned on charges of sexually abusing a student. Vicky Lynn Lewallen, 44, was arraigned Thursday on two counts of forcible oral sodomy. A 17-year-old girl testified during Lewallen's preliminary hearing last year that she and Lewallen had an intimate relationship. At first, she was charged with two counts of rape by instrumentation, but a judge determined there was not enough evidence. If convicted, Lewallen faces up to 20 years in prison on each count. I guess this coach could not handle being around sweaty teenage girls. Accused teacher arraigned on sex charge (05/10/08)

William "George" Woodhouse
04-15-08
An Altus school custodian is in jail charged with lewd and indecent acts with a child. Last week, Intermediate School Custodian William "George" Woodhouse was on administrative leave after being under investigation. Woodhouse was investigated by police into what they called "inappropriate sexual conduct with a student." Now, the investigation is complete, and the man is in jail.
One resident near the school says she is relieved Woodhouse is behind bars, but she wants to be sure something like this doesn't happen again. 7News wanted to know just how Woodhouse was able to be hired to work in the school district. The District Attorney says Woodhouse didn't have any prior arrests as far as he was aware of, and since it's a personnel matter, 7News was unable to get any more information from the school.

Regina McKay
04-07-08
Cotton County_On Monday, a Cotton County school teacher pled "no contest" to the second degree rape of a 17-year-old in 2006, and was convicted and sentenced all in the same day. Geronimo school teacher Regina McKay was accused by one of her students of giving him cigarettes and alcohol to go to her home in Walters and have sex with her.
The District Attorney's office says the two had consensual sex, but it's considered second degree rape. Under Oklahoma state law, it is illegal for high school teachers to have sex with students aged 16-20. The Cotton County DA says McKay received a sentence of five years in prison, but she will serve only 30 days, and those will be on weekends. McKay will be on probation for two years and must pay a $1,000 fine in addition to court costs. She will be required to register as a sex offender, and will be required to confirm her address every three months. McKay will be permitted to be with children only when there is adult supervision, however she will be allowed to attend her children's school functions.
