Ex-Teacher Behind Bars For Sex With Student Wants Early Parole

Norristown, PA - A former Norristown teacher who is serving time in Montgomery County prison for having sex with a eighth-grader is seeking to get out of jail early.

The Intelligencer reports that Jessica Streeper, 35, of Buckingham Township has petitioned the court with her request and a status telephone conference is scheduled for Jan. 21.

Streeper was sentenced in August to 9 to 23 months in Montgomery County prison on charges she had sex with a student at Eisenhower Middle School in 2014.

Streeper cites her husband’s health and financial issues as the reason for her request, the petition says, according to the Intelligencer. The coupe has two children.

Streeper was charged after the Norristown Police Department received an anonymous tip that an eighth-grade teacher at Eisenhower was involved in an inappropriate sexual relationship with a student.

A subsequent investigation led police to Streeper’s relationship with the student.

Streeper and the boy communicated regularly by text message, and a forensic examination of the victim’s phone showed that the messages were sexual in nature, the Montgomery County District Attorney’s Office said.

On several occasions, Streeper picked the boy up at his Norristown home and they had sex in her car, police said. On multiple occasions she brought him to her Buckingham Township home, where they had sex, officials said.

Streeper was charged with institutional sexual assault, involuntary deviate sexual intercourse, corruption of minors and related charges.
