Mary Kay Letourneau, the former Seattle-area teacher who was convicted in 1997 of second-degree child rape of one of her students, has passed away.
Letourneau died fairly suddenly in her home, her former attorney David Gehrke told CNN. Most of her family was with her, including Vili Fualaau, her former student and ex-husband who was giving her 24-hour care the last month of her life. According to TMZ, Letourneau, 58, died after a short battle with Stage 4 colon cancer.
