Ex-Teacher Melinda Dennehy Pleads Guilty: Sent Nude Photos of Herself to Student

Ex-Teacher Melinda Dennehy Pleads Guilty: Sent Nude Photos of Herself to Student
By Beth Shaw

Ex-teacher Melinda Dennehy has plead guilty. She is alleged to have sent nude photos of herself to one of her students. She sent him text messages and emailed photos that showed exposed her genitals. The way she was found out and how she was identified as the sender are a story in themselves. Read more below and see her photo mugshot and a video report of the story.


Things started heating up at Londonderry High School in Derry, New Hampshire when nude photos of former high school teacher Melinda Dennehy began circulating around the high school. The 41-year-old Dennehy was identified as the person in the photos. She was put on administrative leave, with pay, but resigned three weeks later while facing charges of indecent exposure.


According to the recipient of the former teacher’s emails and text messages, she text messaged him ‘continuously’. He said that she offered to have sex with him and kissed him on the mouth in a classroom at least twice. He told police that he forwarded the nude photos to two of his male friends.

Apparently, began circulating around the high school. Dennehy was identified with the help of other staff members at the school. By her genitals?

Dennehy taught sophomore English at Londonderry High School for three years. She resigned three weeks after she was charged in March 2010.

On Monday, July 26, 2010, Melinda Dennehy entered a guilty plea and will not be serving jail time. She plead guilty to indecent exposure for sending nude pictures of herself to a 15-year-old male student through text messaging. The plea was part of a negotiated plea deal in which she would be convicted of the misdemeanor charge of indecent exposure rather than a felony count.

In a statement to the court she said:

I am truly sorry for my actions and poor judgment. I wish the student and his family well.

I am hopeful that all of my students will go forward to live enriched lives. I plan to continue with counseling and treatment and will endeavor to lead a productive life.

Dennehy was facing the possibility of up to seven years in prison had she gone to trial on the felony charges.

As part of her plea agreement she surrendered her teaching certificate. She was sentenced to one-year in jail, which was suspended for two years on the condition that she maintain ‘good behavior’, does not have contact with the boy or his family and does not go to the school.
