Lekeshia Jones, 34, a former business teacher at Myers Middle School in Savannah, Georgia, was fired by the Savannah-Chatham school board after it was discovered that several of her students accessed nude selfies she saved in her cell-phone, reports SavannahNow.com.

[According to] SavannahNow:

District officials testified Jones had given the students her cellphone password to call home, then left the phone unattended. They also said she did not report the incident but asked students to text the social media chatter back to her so she could track down the culprits on her own.

When she finally resumed work at DeRenne Middle, she left her phone unattended a second time, and it was taken by yet another student.

…

What they saw became the hottest topic on the middle schoolers’ social media sites for weeks — Jones lying in bed with her nude body partially draped in a sheet, a nude selfie and a close up of female anatomy.

Jones, however, tells a different story.  She claims that after sending students to get scissors, they never came back. She then went looking for them and found them right where started—in her classroom.

According to Jones, the students allegedly had somehow circumvented her password and discovered the nude selfies. They then took screen-shots of the images, texted them to friends and shared on social media.  “I’m grown,” Jones said. “…Whatever is in my phone is my business … There is nothing in the policy about what you can or cannot have in your phone.”

Jones plans on suing both the students who allegedly shared her pictures online and the school board for wrongful termination.

Given the fact that the students jacked her phone and even posted her personal photos on social media sites, we’d say this teacher definitely has grounds for feeling like she was done wrong. What are your thoughts on all this, Bossip fam?
