Teacher Allegedly Indecent with Deaf Girl

(Baton Rouge, Louisiana) A 29-year-old teacher at the Louisiana School for the Deaf, Amanda Elizabeth Key, has been accused of an improper relationship with a 16-year-old female student.

Last week, the mother of the 16-year-old girl discovered her daughter was communicating via e-mail and text messages with Key and at least two others connected to the school, Christopher John Watson, 38, and Nathan Daniel Boyes, 26.

Key, of 235 Cloud Drive, sent the 16-year-old student naked pictures of herself via e-mail, [police spokesman] McKneely said.

Key has been booked into custody at Parish Prison on one count of indecent behavior with a juvenile.

Boyes and Watson, both deaf, were arrested and booked on charges of indecent behavior with a juvenile. Both are in Parish Prison. Boyes is a physical education teacher at the School for the Deaf. Watson is a former teacher at the school.
