Texas Teacher Accused of Doing Four Students
[Previous 1/18/13 post]
(Fort Worth, Texas) A 39-year-old computer technology teacher at Haltom High School, Tonya Flink, has been accused of engaging in sex with four of her students. Reportedly, she "liked Hispanic kids."

A mother of three, Flink faces charges of improper relationship between an educator and a student.

According to testimony by one student, Flink was described as 'pushing herself on him' before the pair's sexual relationship snowballed into ‘everything you could imagine.’

It's that same student who later told police that in addition to Flink buying him clothes and gifts, on several instances she showed up at his home knocking on his back door looking for sex.

Phone records between Flink and that student show at least 850 phone calls between them made from December of 2010 to May of 2011. Other records revealed hundreds of text messages.

At some point in 2011 Flink divorced, leaving her with a five-year-old child and another in high school and college.

That same year, the student moved in with her in her apartment in Bedford after graduating.

Flink was booked into custody and released on $10,000 bond.
