34-year-old teacher Laura Caron, who lives in New Jersey, USA, will face court over allegations that she became pregnant by her 13-year-old student.
Caron has been charged with serious offenses such as "sexual assault" and "endangering the welfare of a child." According to allegations, the teacher began the abuse when the child was 11 years old, and this continued for four years between 2016 and 2020.
How did the incident come to light? The child's father noticed that the baby girl born by Caron resembled his son very much. The father stated in a Facebook post, "This baby either carries my DNA or my son's, and we both know we never touched this woman."
Prosecutors say that Caron gave birth to a baby girl in 2019 when the child was 13 years old. The abuse started in 2016 when the teacher was 28 and the child was only 11.
Prosecutor Jeffrey Sutherland said, "These allegations are extremely disturbing considering the defendant's position of trust. We are determined to protect the most vulnerable members of our society."
The child and her siblings began living with the teacher first occasionally and then permanently due to family issues. Caron was working as a fifth-grade teacher in the Middle Township School District at that time.
When the father's Facebook post went viral, the police launched an investigation. As a result of the investigation, prosecutors described the situation as "systematic abuse and manipulation."
Caron was the teacher of both the victim and the victim's younger sibling. Other children in the house noticed strange situations, such as the victim sleeping in Caron's bed instead of with her siblings. One of the victim's siblings witnessed the sexual relationship between Caron and the victim. Another sibling has a screenshot of a conversation where the victim said, "The baby's father is me, but I don't want my teacher to get in trouble."
Caron was arrested in January 2025. The defense attorney stated that the DNA test results had not yet come back and that the state was acting hastily. Caron was released on bail and suspended without pay from school. If found guilty, she could face up to 20 years in prison.
The hearing will take place on July 16.
