Major update on teacher, 34, who had BABY with boy, 13, & was exposed when ‘his dad realised he looked like his child'
A NEW Jersey primary school teacher who gave birth to her 13-year-old student's baby has been charged with sexual abuse. Laura Caron, 34, worked at Middle Township Elementary School before she was accused of engaging in an inappropriate sexual relationship with a student. 5 5 The student was alleged to have been living at her home, the Cape May County Prosecutor's Office said. The fifth-grade teacher was caught when the boy's dad made a shocking realisation. When he noticed a striking similarity between his son and the child on Facebook, he alerted authorities. Officials alleged the schoolteacher sexually assaulted her former student between 2016 and 2020, with their child being born in 2019. The two of them met when Caron taught him and his brother at Middle Township Elementary School, the New York Post reported. The teenager's family reportedly had a good relationship with the teacher and allowed their two sons and daughter to spend a couple of nights per week at her house. The trio lived permanently with Caron between 2016 and 2020, sharing a bedroom. It was during that time that Caron allegedly fell pregnant after having 'inappropriate sexual relations' with her former pupil, cops said. The boy's sister said she remembered going to sleep with her brother in the same room - but woke up to find him in Caron's bed, the criminal complaint alleges. She added that the teacher started sleeping with her brother when he was 11 years old. The victim allegedly admitted to his sister in a text that he was the dad of the child and asked her to keep it a secret. Investigators allege that the teen's brother had once seen Caron sexually assaulting his sleeping brother. The alleged victim, who is now between 19 and 20 years old, revealed the sexual relationship with Caron to investigators during an interview and confirmed he is the baby's child. Police arrested Caron at her home in January and charged her with aggravated sexual assault, sexual assault, and endangering the welfare of a child. The grand jury's indictment came last week. Caron was charged with aggravated sexual assault, as well as sexual assault and endangering the welfare of a child, Cape May County Prosecutor Jeffrey H. Sutherland revealed. The charges could carry potential penalties of over 30 years. The prosecutor's office did not say anything about the child in its press releases. Sutherland said: "These allegations are deeply disturbing, particularly given the position of trust the defendant held in relation to the victim. 'Our office remains committed to protecting the most vulnerable members of our community and will continue to aggressively investigate and prosecute those who violate that trust." Caron is being held at the Cape May County Correctional Facility without bond until her first court appearance, court documents show. 5

NJ elementary teacher accused of sexually abusing student, having his child when he was 13
Print Close By Michael Dorgan Published June 24, 2025 A New Jersey elementary school teacher was indicted for allegedly abusing a student over the course of several years, while it is also being reported that she gave birth to the boy's child. Laura Caron, 34, a former fifth-grade teacher at Middle Township Elementary School, is accused of engaging in an inappropriate sexual relationship with the student who had been residing in her home, the Cape May County Prosecutor's Office said. The abuse allegedly started when the boy was 11 in 2016 and carried on for four years until 2020 when he was 15. During this time period, prosecutors said, Caron was employed as a fifth-grade teacher at the Middle Township Elementary School. HIGH SCHOOL TEACHER CHARGED WITH SEXUALLY ASSAULTING FORMER TEEN STUDENT AT HER HOME Police began their investigation last year after receiving a tip that the victim's father had made a post on Facebook claiming that Caron's 5-year-old child looked like his son, Fox 29 reported, citing court documents. The outlet reported that Caron had taught the victim and at least one of his siblings. The boy's family later became friends with Caron and at some point, the victim and his siblings began staying with Caron once or twice a week, before they began living with Caron permanently from 2016 to 2020, the outlet reported. Court documents also allege that the victim confirmed to police that he was in a sexual relationship with Caron and that he was the father of her young child. The child was born when the victim was 13 years old. A friend of Caron's told the New York Post that the accused threw a baby shower for the child and told friends that the father was "out of the picture."

Sutherland announced. The prosecutor's office did not mention anything about the child in its press releases. "These allegations are deeply disturbing, particularly given the position of trust the defendant held in relation to the victim," Sutherland said.
