Female trainer ‘who had sexual relationship with teen’ smiles in unusual mugshot

Yet another female teacher has been charged with having an “inappropriate sexual relationship” with a former student of hers over the summer, say police.

Angela Barnes, 45, is accused of having the affair with a teen boy off of school grounds between June and July this year. She taught at Carroll Middle School in Southlake, Texas, but has now been placed on leave by the Carroll Independent School District after education bosses became aware of the disturbing allegations from police officials.

Barnes was arrested on Monday after a probe was launched in late September, according to police. A bizarre mugshot of her awkwardly smiling at the camera has now been released after she was booked in Keller Regional Jail on charges of sexual assault of a child and improper relationship between educator and student.

“The District was made aware the alleged offense took place off-campus over the summer within the jurisdiction of the Keller Police Department,” the school system said, as per WFAA.

“Based on the information we have received, no incidents occurred on Carroll Independent School District campuses. CISD is working in collaboration with Keller Police and Child Protective Services as they investigate the allegations.”

The district is located in the city of Southlake, a suburb of the Dallas area. Keller Public Safety said at this time it doesn’t believe there are more alleged victims of Barnes.

The Daily Star previously reported that the infamous “camel toe” teacher could soon walk free from prison after she was sentenced to four years behind bars for admitting to having sex with a 16-year-old student.

Hailey Clifton-Carmack, 26, taught at Laquey High School in Missouri and was arrested on January 5 over the intimate relationship. Court documents suggested she would dress inappropriately in “tight or low-cut shirts” to show off her cleavage and “tight leggings that showed off her camel toe”. Evidence pics are also believed to show the student bearing scratch marks on his back after they allegedly had sex in his driveway.

Classmates would even 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.

She was recently sentenced to four years but it’s now been revealed that she may walk free from prison fairly soon. She was initially charged with child molestation, statutory rape and endangering the welfare of a child, but these were dropped in the plea deal.

She was also ordered to complete a sex offender treatment program, KJLU reported. However, a judge said he will review her case in 90 days and essentially, if she’s been ‘good’, she could have her prison sentence reduced to probation.
