I’ll See You After School

Debi Mercer, 42, the wife of the Yamhill County (Ore.) district attorney, pleaded guilty last week to charges of sexual abuse and official misconduct when it was discovered that she had kissed a 14-year-old boy she was supervising in school detention. The boy, who is now 16, told investigators that the two had engaged in sexual relations both on and off school grounds for the past two years, and that she had performed oral sex on him. In a plea bargained sentence, Mercer avoided jail time but is on 30 days’ house arrest, five years’ probation, must pay $2,500 for psychological therapy for the boy, and must stay away from boys under 18.
