The student then filed the case to seek financial compensation from the LAUSD stating she suffered emotional trauma from the six-month relationship with Hermida, according to KPCC.
During the trial, L.A. Unified’s attorney W. Keith Wyatt introduced the girl’s sexual history and argued she bore some of the responsibility.
The judge ruled in favor of the district.
“Why is it her fault that she planned on having sex with her teacher? That she lied to her mother so she could have an opportunity to have sex with her teacher,” Wyatt said in a radio interview with KPCC. “That she went to a motel in which she engaged in voluntary consensual sex with her teacher. Why shouldn’t she be responsible for that?”

It's hard to argue with most of that logic.

But why is she suing the school district? Did they know? Did they have reason to suspect? Did they cover something up? I can understand suing the teacher.
It's not me, it's someone else.

I've been formulating a theory.... as soon as a "rape victim" settles for money, she stops becoming a victim and becomes a shrewd business woman.
