Elementary school teacher accused of raping student implies she's pregnant with his child: report
A Tennessee elementary school teacher accused of raping a boy when he was 12 years old implied that she is pregnant with his child in a phone call played in court this week, according to local reports.
"I'm going to raise this baby. I can do this," Alissa McCommon, a fourth-grade teacher, can be heard saying in a phone call with the victim that was played aloud in a Tipton County courtroom Tuesday, according to FOX 13 Memphis.
McCommon, 38, of Covington, is accused of sexually assaulting a boy, who told police that while spending the night at the suspect's residence in 2021 — when he was 12 years old — he awoke to McCommon sexually assaulting him.
She was initially arrested on Sept. 8 and charged with rape of a child. McCommon was then released on $250,000 bond until she was rearrested on Sept. 28 and charged with coercing, harassing and stalking the victim.
