28-year-old Haeli Wey pled guilty to two felony counts of having an improper relationship with a student this week though she will not have to register as a sex offender. She will also be sentenced to probation but will not have to spend a single day in jail. The length of her probation is 10 years and she must complete 200 hrs of community service.
Wey worked at Westlake High School in Austin, Texas. It was there as a math teacher she became involved with two male students. Both were 17 years old, the legal age of consent in Texas, which is predominantly why Wey will not have to register as a sex offender.

One of the boys told police his relationship with Wey began after she traveled to Africa with his family. The two slept together a number of times afterwards, the boy told investigators, but broke it off after he heard rumors she’d gone on a hike with another boy.

“The victim said while in Africa his relationship with Ms. Wey became more personal and on a deeper level,” a detective wrote in an affidavit. “The victim stated while in Africa their relationship became physical and they had sex at least 10 times.”


That second boy told police he and Wey had sex on the hike. The two had been talking over social media and she invited him on the trip. She would later ask him to delete their conversation, according to investigators.

At some point during the stroll, Wey “took out a hammock and start kissing the boy, documents read.

“Your Affiant then asked the victim if he was expected to have sex with Ms. Wey while on this hike,” court papers say. “The victim stated ‘yeah.’ When asked why, he stated, ‘a teacher just doesn’t hang out with a student to hang out.’”

Wey, who had taught math at the school for two years, was busted when the first victim told his father about what had happened. The high school fired Wey immediately upon being notified.. The school asked the boy’s parents to speak to police and they agreed.
