Posted/updated on: January 1, 2011 at 7:20 amJACKSONVILLE — An East Texas Teacher resigns after indecent photos of her surfaced. Krystal Looney, 25, taught at Jacksonville High School up until the pictures surfaced on the internet during the Christmas break. Autumn Green, who says she was kicked off a cheerleading squad coached by Looney, posted the pictures online. KETK spoke with Green, who says she put the pictures of Looney on her facebook wall. Green tells us she did not realize Looney would lose her job. Looney did not want to comment, but other sources confirm the pictures were taken off and Looney resigned.
Superintendent Joe Wardell says, “All I can tell you is that we did have a teacher resign over Christmas break. We’re very limited by law as to what information we can give out about any kind of personnel issue.” Jacksonville’s employee standards of conduct says: “Employees shall be held to the same professional standards in their public use of electronic media as they are for any other public conduct.”
