Wild Party at Teacher's House!

(Bossier City, Louisiana) A 42-year-old teacher at Byrd High School in Shreveport, Leanne Marie Burt, was arrested Tuesday for allegedly hosting a wild party with high school students involving alcohol drinking games and inappropriate sexual behavior.

Burt has been charged with contributing to the delinquency of a minor and letting a disorderly place.

Additionally, related charges have been filed against a teacher at Airline High School, Tricia Cooney, 35, who stopped at Burt's house but reportedly didn't know about the party. She left as more and more students arrived, according to her lawyer. Cooney was cited by police to come to court and answer charges of improper supervision of a minor.

Those present at the party were ages 16 to 20 years and sexual activity began after Burt went to bed at 3:30 AM, according to Bossier City Police Chief Mike Halphen.

Burt and Cooney have been placed on leave by their respective school systems.
