There’s ‘bad blood’ between sexually abusive teacher’s husband and one of her accusers

SHERWOOD, Ore. – It’s bad enough when a student claims he was sexually abused by a teacher.

It’s even more inexcusable when he finds himself at odds with the teacher’s husband, who also happens to be a local police officer.

Denise Keesee, 39, a former teacher at Sherwood High School, was sentenced earlier this week to a month in jail and five years of probation for sexually abusing a 16-year-old male student, according to a report from OregonLive.com.

She was originally accused of having sexual contact multiple times with two boys who were students at the high school between 2005 And 2009, the report said. She eventually accepted a plea agreement in which she admitted to two counts of abuse involving one victim.

But the disturbing story doesn’t end there. There was more than one Keesee working at Sherwood High School. The teacher’s husband, Adam Keesee, is a local police officer who was formerly assigned to the high school as a resource officer.  (more...)
