A school administrator told police she’d seen emails between Gilles and the student, and their contents were sexual in nature.

What an incredibly stupid school administrator, who committed two crimes in her blundering attempt to gather evidence: Accessing the students email Using a stolen password to gain improper access to the student's Yahoo account If this were a public school, accessing the student's email without a warrant would quite likely jeopardize the prosecution, not to mention breaking into the Yahoo account. However, criminal acts on the part of non-government actors generally don't taint evidence. Still I predict that the defense attorneys are going to get a lot of leverage from her over-zealous bungling. This underscores why law enforucement officials should always take over these investigations at the first suspicion of criminal misconduct. Fmr. Teacher Charged with Having Sex with a 17-Year-Old Student According to the criminal complaint, a school administrator told police she had seen an e-mail correspondence between 28-year-old [Mary] Gilles and a 17-year-old male student that contained sexual content.

The administrator said she had a “gut feeling” that something inappropriate was happening, so she accessed the student’s school e-mail account. There was nothing there, but she found a password for the student’s Yahoo e-mail account and found many e-mails “containing sexual relationship content.” Authorities met with the student after collecting more evidence. The complaint states the student told authorities he and Gilles were very close, and they started having sex in February 2014, and it continued through September.
