On the 16th (local time), local media including the New York Post reported on Laura Caron (34), an elementary school teacher in Middletown Township, New Jersey, who was arrested on charges including sexual assault of a minor. Caron is accused of sexually assaulting a male student she taught from 2016 to 2020, starting when he was 11 years old.


According to police investigations, Caron was the homeroom teacher when the victim was in the 5th grade. Over several years, she built a relationship with the victim’s family and gained the trust of the victim’s parents. Trusting Caron, the parents allowed their children to live with her starting in 2016, the year the victim turned 11.


Caron’s misconduct continued for four years from 2016, when the cohabitation began, until 2020. The victim’s older sister testified to the police, "At the beginning of the cohabitation, Caron and the children slept together on the second floor, but in the morning, my younger brother was found sleeping in Caron’s bed." She also said she often saw Caron following her younger brother into the bathroom while he was showering and locking the door.


The case came to light in December last year when the victim’s father became suspicious after noticing that Caron’s 5-year-old son bore a striking resemblance to his own son and posted about it on social media. Investigations confirmed that the child was born in 2019 to Caron and the victim. At the time of birth, Caron was 28 years old and the victim was 14.



Local police authorities stated, "We are taking all possible measures to ensure the safety of the children," and added, "We will conduct a thorough investigation in close cooperation with the prosecution." Caron is currently detained at Cape May County Jail and is awaiting her first court appearance.
