A female school janitor raped a male student at a high school, robbing him of his virginity after he turned her down for sex multiple times, it has been claimed.

Jessica Galyon, 29, is accused of taking the schoolboy into a room at Midway High School, Tennessee and raping him, moments after he begged her to stop making advances towards him.

Galyon allegedly began sending "flirtatious and sexual messages" to the boy last August. He told the janitor her advances were "unsolicited, unwanted and unwelcome."

But a lawsuit says Galyon was undeterred, asking the boy to go to a hotel with her for sex on September 16. It is alleged he rejected the offer and told her he didn't want "any further contact" with her.



At school the teenager then made a final demand to Galyon to stop harrassing him and it is then claimed she took him into a room and raped him during school hours.

Galyon, who is a married mother from Philadelphia, Tennessee, was arrested on February 23 on charges of sexual battery by an authority figure, aggravated statutory rape and statutory rape by an authority figure.

The Roane County Sheriff's Office, said she was later released on $15,000 bond to return home to her husband Bull and their son.

The male student's family are suing for $4.5m in damages from Roane County Schools and Compass One Services of Tennessee, the contractor that employed Galyon. according to the Knoxville News Sentinel.
