Investigators said the car was parked on the road and obstructing traffic. When an officer approached the car, she saw Stigger inside with the boy who was nude from the waist down. She reportedly told the deputy that the teen was trying to seduce her but her story later changed.
“She did say that she was in the process of mentoring this past student of hers, even though it was two o’clock in the morning, and they were in the back seat of a car,” said Carter.
