A former Central Valley High school teacher’s “predatory actions” stripped a student of his dreams and significantly harmed him and his family after the teacher had sex with the 17-year-old, the student’s mother told a judge Thursday.
McKenna Kindred, 25, will receive no jail time – recommended by the prosecution and defense – after she pleaded guilty Thursday to amended charges of second-degree sexual misconduct with a minor and communication with a minor for immoral purposes, both gross misdemeanors.
Spokane County Superior Court Judge Dean Chuang sentenced Kindred to two years of probation and $700 in fines and fees. She must register as a sex offender for 10 years.
Students came forward in December 2022 to describe the inappropriate relationship between Kindred and her teacher’s assistant.
The teen’s classmates told school officials he was inappropriately messaging Kindred via Instagram and that he was defensive when they questioned him about the relationship, according to court documents. Kindred also reported to administration she was being harassed by someone on social media, accusing her of a sexual relationship with a student that she denied.
The teen’s mother later told law enforcement her son had a sexual relationship with Kindred, that he’d been to her house alone with her and that the two had been sharing explicit photos over Instagram, court records say. Detectives did not find photographs “that appeared overtly sexual in nature,” documents say. There were messages referencing masturbation.
The teenager was interviewed at his home and admitted he’d begun messaging Kindred in June 2022. He told police he visited Kindred’s house and that they had sex. He also admitted to sharing explicit pictures and videos with Kindred, according to court records.
Central Valley School District said last year Kindred had resigned.
The student’s mother told Chuang that Kindred’s actions were an “abuse of power” and that she started to “groom” him when he was 16.
She said her son was unable to finish high school on campus, which affected him socially, emotionally and academically. He also lost some of his youth and missed out on major milestones.
The woman said her son played soccer since he was 18 months old, but Kindred’s criminal actions forced his plans to change.
“A light he used to carry has been dimmed,” she said.
The mother said she agreed to the attorneys’ sentencing recommendations, so the case did not drag out any longer.
The word rape doesn’t show up in that entire article. Must be some kind of mistake. I wonder why that would happen?
The age of consent in Washington is 16.
Because it wasn’t rape.
Rape is forced sex. He was willing.
You’re just trying to conflate the legal definition of rape with “having sex with someone against their will.” They are not the same and never will be.
Two words - White. Woman.
So, where are all the feminists that would cancel and rip apart a man if he did this pedo act to an underage girl? Or do they only choose to do activism when it benefits the female? Suddenly it is okay with feminists because the underage boy must have enjoyed older woman. Right?
This is why I refuse to trust a single word coming out of females and feminism. Equality is NOT the same as feminism. And it never will be, because we as organisms are all tribalists at some level, no matter how much we pretend to progress.
Fuck all of you that look the other way when it comes to men’s rights or male abuse. All of you. Man, woman, trans, every one of you. Sincerely, fuck you. Why? Because REDACTED
Edit: I do not think a lot of “leftists” are allies of men, considering the removal of this comment which had my testimony.
females
Lol
Good. Women having sex with teenage males is not the same as men having sex with teenage females.
It just isn’t, although this simple fact will upset a lot of neurotic people.
Notice how the only people complaining are his mom and classmates? Something tells me he’s not going to regret this later like what happens with most females who have sex as teenagers, but I guess we’ll have to wait and see.
