More Info On Ga. Teacher Fired After Students Find Nude Selfies In Her Cell Phone [VIDEO]

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.

The formal reasons for her dismissal were “being irresponsible with her phone, for not properly handling or reporting the incident and for insubordination in the weeks that followed.”

“Back home [Natchez, Miss.] my family is prominent,” she said. “I’m the Natchez Indians [Mardis Gras Ball] Queen. Nothing like this has ever happened to me.”

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.

The students started a Facebook page – titled “T.H.O.T (That Ho Over There)” – and used other social media to share the images with their peers, according to Myers Middle School PrincipalEricka Washington.

Jones insists that she’s the “victim.”

“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.
