Sean Lee Catron Sean Lee Catron, 38, a biology teacher at Stilwell High School in Stilwell, Oklahoma was charged, on November 3rd, with three counts of second-degree rape and a count of sexual battery. Assistant District Attorney Shannon Otteson, the prosecutor in the case, said Sean Lee Catron faces a Nov. 12 initial arraignment before Associate District Judge Liz Brown. Otteson said the charges are the result of an investigation by Stilwell police that started after one of the victims told a parent. The charges involve two victims and the incidents allegedly occurred during the current school year. Some allegedly happened on school property and others happened at Catron’s home, Otteson said. She said the victims are Stilwell High School students. Otteson was unsure of Catron’s current employment status, but was working as a biology teacher at the time of the alleged incident. She also said she knew Catron, 38, was suspended from his job prior to charges being filed.

Dale Clinton Swank, 41, was an art teacher at Independence Charter Middle School, located at 3232 Northwest 65th Street, for nine years. He was arrested in Logan County this week on three counts of lewd acts with a child under 16 and one count of sexual battery and has been formally charged. Court records show the alleged incidents occurred between Sept. 2002 and May 2004, all of them either in Swank's art room or supply closet. The first victim did not come forward, investigators said, until March 2008. Police said that is not unusual for an investigation like this, especially one dating back that far. Investigators said that after they started asking talking to the first victim, three other women came forward with similar stories.

Lori June Canady
09-05-08
A former Jennings school teacher's aide must register as a sex offender after admitting to an intimate encounter with a 15-year-old boy.
A Tulsa County judge this week gave 35-year-old Lori June Canady eight years of probation for a second-degree rape count she pleaded guilty to in July.
District Judge William Kellough's punishment doesn't require Canady to serve time in prison but does give her a felony conviction. As a result, she must register as a sex offender.
Police say Canady and the boy admitted they had sex February 18th in a room at a Sand Springs motel.
According to reports, Canady said she picked the boy up at his home and took him to a Tulsa shopping mall before they went to the motel. By law, the boy was too young to consent to having sex with the defendant.

Larry Dean Scheer

A former Haskell band director pleaded guilty Monday to two counts of forcible sodomy involving a former juvenile student.
Larry Dean Scheer, 59, entered into a plea agreement, agreeing to a term of 20 years suspended on each count. Each count is to run concurrent with the other. That means Scheer gets no prison time if he doesn’t break the law within the next 20 years.
He will have to register as a sex offender, said Muskogee County Sheriff Investigator Faye Banks.
An affidavit filed in the initial court filing states one incident occurred in December 2007 and the second on Jan. 4, 2008. Both incidents occurred in a band practice room at Haskell High School, the affidavit states.

Two of the girls interviewed by police said they had a sexual relationship with Gilbetson. One girl told police Gilbrtson had sent her several text messages despite her objection and that he had touched her leg once in a classroom.

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.
