“News reports began flowing Wednesday in regards to Brittany Sumrall Johnson, 26, sending one of her eighth grade students questionable messages on MySpace since October. The reports claim Johnson sent messages asking the 14 year old boy for sex. The family wants her arrested and for her to resign or be dismissed. ‘The school system and administration of Kilbourne High School investigated these allegations right before we got out for the holidays,’ West Carroll Superintendent Kent Davis said. ‘We gathered our information and met with Mrs. Johnson and [another party]. The information was forwarded to the sheriff’s office.’” [Link]

I don’t know how she could be so stupid. She has a great husband and just had a baby. What is she doin with a 14 yr old. Gross. I went to church with her and she seemed great, but wow is she not. you never know who neone is now days and cant trust neone not even your own teacher. She is sick and should be considered a petafile. I cannot believe this. i’m so disappointed and disgusted. I am goin to be a teacher and would never do such a thing.

Wow! Thats all I can say! I went to high school with Brittny at West Jones in Laurel MS. She was always a very respectable girl, never had any problems, came from a wonderful set of parents, and honestly is the last person I would ever expect to hear this from. All I know is this is a very sad situation and Im very glad the boy’s parents came forward. This needs to stop. This makes me realize that you cannot trust anyone. No matter what thier background and their appearance. I hope that she never gets to work around kids or students again, we have to protect our minors and getting rid of these predators is a good start!

Please remember that you are innocent until proven guilty. I read the new releases on this case. The DA has yet to review the evidence. Just imagine how easy it would be for someone to get your password and set you up. Please let’s not stone this young woman before we know all the facts. Whether she did it or not, her career is over. If she did, she should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. Until this event, this young lady was of a model teacher. Her reputation was unblemished. Let’s wait for the facts, and then debate what should happen.

I agree, I truly hope that this isnt true for her sake. But its a little hard to believe that it isnt. I welcome an investigation and if she is innocent I hope it all comes out. If it werent true, she wouldnt be leaving her husband to come back to Laurel to live with her parents. Why would you run and hide from something that isnt true? I would think if I was innocent I would stay put professing my innocence. The point I would like to make clear is if she is guilty, I hope and pray that actions are put into play that she is never allowed to work around students again. I hope that this all came out in time enough for no one to get hurt, for no real actions to be done. Maybe it was a horrible decision on her part and maybe she would have never gone through with any actions. But we cant look at these people individually and judge whether or not they would act on their comments. We have to look at them as a whole and make sure they dont get the chance to do it again. Im praying for her and her family in hopes they get through this and Im also praying for all the kids out there who may find themselves in a similar situation. May they have the strength to tell someone who cares enough to do something about it.

I went to JCJC with her and I am totally shocked. I cannot begin to imagine what she was thinking. She had a great husband and now has obviously ruined that. I know that her parents are utterly embarassed about what she has done. Has she moved back to Laurel does anyone know??

This is a great example of why MySpace and other websites should not be used. The temptation of making wrong choices and typing inappropriate things can cause your mind to have sick ideas. Pay attention world – this is not just happening to this girl – it is everywhere – abuse of the computer in chat rooms, etc. Protect your minds – this girl HAD a good reputation. Pray for her and her family – and the families of the people she hurt. This is her wake up call! She knew better!!

“Why would you run and hide from something that isnt true? I would think if I was innocent I would stay put professing my innocence.”

You say that now, but the truth is in a small town – and you and I BOTH being from Laurel, Miss. – you know how you can be run out of a place, even if you are innocent. You said you’d stay behind, well, that’s easier said than done.

Furthermore, as someone already stated, it hasn’t been proven. Everyone wants in on the gossip because hey, what else do you have to do in a small town? Did you ever think that perhaps some kid was just angry with her and wanted revenge? Did you ever think the reason she left was because perhaps she was already getting a divorce or other marital problems requiring a break? Or did you ever think the parents of the boy might just want to be able to sue the school system for improper conduct on their premises? Oh, probably not because those would be too plausible.

I’m not saying that it is or isn’t true, but I think for those of you that are speaking of how you’re also from Laurel (despite knowing what a great person she was) and those that brought up church, should feel ashamed for automatically assuming something that well, quite frankly, you just aren’t qualified to do. Unless you are with the investigation or picked to be one of the jurors IF it goes to trial, then I suggest you worry about your own life and keeping that in order.

*Oh, and I can’t wait to read the backlash from that as I’m sure there will be some*
Really quite sad actually. Some things never change.

These people coming on here defending this obvious sex offender make me sick, im sure it could only be the family considering how much they obviously care about what people think about them.

As hard as it may be to believe, she DID send the inappropriate messages to her 14 year old student. You may wonder how I can say that…..I READ them!!! No blame should be placed on anyone other than the teacher. Maybe she appeared to be one type of person, but in reality, she sought attention from her 14 year old student. I hope it does come to trial so everyone will know the truth. If there were no truth to the report of messages, the superintendent would not have said he was “disappointed in her actions” and he would not have given her a “written reprimand.”

I am not saying she is guilty or innocent and I am sure that I do not know all the facts, but could it be possible that someone broke into her myspace account and sent those? Mine has been broke into and messages sent. Like, I said i don’t know her and I am not taking up for her. I do know a guy that is listed and has the title of a sex offender and he truely did nothing wrong. He and his girlfriend had been dating for 5 years, since she was like 12 and he was 14 or 15, keep in mind her parents knew his age and let them date, when he was 19 and she was 16, her parents got mad because they had broken up and slapped statuatory rape on him and now he is a sex offender? I don’t know all the facts and if she in deed sent a 14 year old a mess about having sex then without a doubt she needs to be punished. But if you do not know all the facts, don’t be so quick to judge.

I CALL BS I KNOW SHE WOULD NEVER DO SUCH A THING LIKE THAT. I CANT BELIEVE ANYONE WOULD BELIEVE THAT. I THINK THAT THE 14 YEAR OLD BRIBED HER INTO DOING THAT TO BE HONEST WITH YOU. SHE IS THE MOST SWEETEST PERSON I KNOW AND PLUS SHE HAS A KID AND A HUSBAND BUT IM ON YOUR SIDE ALL THE WAY MRS. JOHNSON.

For those of you that are still interested in this particular situation, please be advised that she has not been prosecuted, no formal charges have been brought against her. There is rumor that she plans to teach again in the same school next year! Yes, she did send the messages to her student. They were inappropriate and sexual in nature. There is no excuse for her actions. Had she been a man sending messages to a female student, she would have been in jail. Yes, she seemed to be very sweet and innocent; however, there have been many criminals that appeared to be the same. When people commit crimes, people are shocked because “they seemed so sweet andn the nicest person I know.” She should not be allowed to be around chldren, regardless of how sweet she may seem, she is still a sick person that needs not only to be punished, but needs psychological help.
