"Hot for Teacher"

Pamela Smart used lust to manipulate a teenage boy into killing her husband. When she “fell in love” with her sophomore student Bill, she took his virginity then shortly after gave him an ultimatum: either kill her husband or she would leave him. Being a sophomore boy who just lost his virginity to his beautiful 20 something teacher, Mrs.Smart knew she had Bill wrapped around her finger and could get him to do anything she pleased. Pam deserves to be sentenced to imprisonment for life; manipulating a young boy into committing a horrible crime. It's still very difficult for me to wrap my head around a teacher acting in such a childish way. First she sparks a romantic affair with a child, then proceeds to not want to do the adult thing and leave her husband (so killing him is obviously the only option.) Bill on the other hand deserves to deal with the repercussions of killing someone but should not have the rest of his life be affected because it wasn’t an act of hate. He was old enough to know that what he was doing was very wrong, but young enough to be easily manipulated into doing something he didn't want to.
