Minnesota Teacher Guilty of Prostitution

(St. Paul, Minnesota) A 23-year-old substitute teacher in North St. Paul, Tameshia Leeann Allen-Hodges, pleaded guilty to inducing a 21-year-old female student with developmental disabilities to engage in prostitution.

Allen-Hodges reportedly took photos of the student in lingerie and suggested she perform sex acts for money.

The student told police she received multiple calls and said at least one man came to Allen-Hodges' apartment, though the student said she did not engage in any physical contact with him, according to a criminal complaint.

Police searched Allen-Hodges' cellphone and found seven photos of the scantily clad student dated April 22. Allen-Hodges admitted she posted them online, the complaint said.

Allen-Hodges pleaded guilty to a prostitution charge this week. Sentencing has been scheduled for March 7.
