Dad of boy in sexual relationship with ‘camel toe’ instructor ‘simply let it occur’

The dad of a boy who was in an inappropriate sexual relationship with a teacher is said to have “just let it happen” because “they would have gone ahead and done it anyway”.

Missouri maths teacher Hailey Clifton-Carmack “wore tight leggings to show off her camel toe” and “low-cut tops to flaunt her boobs” at Laquey High School, and was arrested on January 5 over an alleged intimate relationship with a 16-year-old boy.

The ex-teacher on Thursday was told she’d learn her fate in October after pleading guilty to having sex with the boy – and to make matters worse pictures of her soon-to-be ex-husband also resurfaced, causing major embarrassment for everyone involved.

There’s lots of quality news coming out of the US.

Now it has emerged the victim’s father, Mark Creighton, allegedly knew his son was in a “sexual relationship” with Clifton-Carmack. He purportedly said they “are going to do it behind my back, so I may as well let it happen,” according to prosecutors.

He is also facing felony charges for condoning the alleged illicit relationship but Hillman told PEOPLE his case is “on hold” until the teacher is sentenced “as he has agreed to assist the State and testify if needed”.

Court documents suggested 26-year-old Clifton-Carmack would dress inappropriately in “tight or low-cut shirts” to show off her cleavage and “tight leggings that showed off her camel toe” at the school.

Documents further revealed the mum-of-two would often be reprimanded by the school’s administration for being “too close with students”. Separately, the recently-divorced teacher wanted to leave her husband as he only wanted to “do butt stuff”, a witness told investigators, the Daily Star previously reported.

The alleged victim, 16, was reportedly the reason “her divorce was pushed through” after the witness presented cops with evidence and photographs of the relationship. One of the images is believed to have been of the student bearing scratch marks on his back after they allegedly had sex in his driveway.

Classmates would allegedly serve as “lookouts” while the pair had sex at Laquey High School during school hours, court docs added. Allegations against Clifton-Carmack first arose on December 7, 2023, after a student reported the illicit relationship to the school.

A day later, detectives confronted the teacher following the allegations, but she denied having any sexual relationship with any students. Clifton-Carmack fled Missouri to visit family in Texas, 800 miles away, on December 23 but has since been charged with sexual contact with a student, statutory rape in the second degree, endangering the welfare of a child, and child molestation.

On Friday, September 6, Clifton-Carmack pleaded guilty to felony sexual contact with a student, per her signed plea order. (The January charges, which also initially included child molestation, statutory rape and endangering the welfare of a child, were dropped in the plea deal).

Pulaski County Prosecuting Attorney Kevin S. Hillman told PEOPLE she faces four years behind bars under Missouri’s Sex Offender Assessment Program for the crimes that took place between November and December 2023.

Now on house arrest Clifton-Carmack will be sentenced on October 11.
