Catholic School Coach Arrested For Having Sex With Student

A former gym teacher and girls basketball coach was arrested Monday for a sexual relationship she had with a 16 year-old male student. “Megan Mahoney, 24, was charged with 30 counts of statutory rape for a series of trysts that authorities say took place between Oct. 31, 2013, and Jan. 9.” according to The New York Post. Court papers claim that Mahoney and her victim would meet at least twice per week. The former athletic director for Moore Catholic, the school where this happened, stepped down earlier this month after accusations of “inappropriate behavior with a former staffer,” although a source for Staten Island Live said that he stepped down “for health reasons.” Megan Mahoney was released without any bail and her attorney declined an opportunity to comment.
