CBS Local San Francisco (14 Dec 2011): Ex-Moraga Teacher Sentenced For Molesting Former Student

CBS Local San Francisco said:

At 14, the teacher [Julie Gay Correa] she trusted kissed her for the first time, leading to a four-year pattern of abuse that divided Cunnane’s identity as both “an accomplished Moraga teen and a terrified sex slave”, and has since caused her to suffer from depression and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, she said. Correa repeatedly raped her former student, at her Walnut Creek apartment, in her car, and at Cunnane’s home, where she would sometimes hide in the teen’s bedroom closet or under her bed, waiting for her parents to fall asleep. Cunnane said Correa threatened to harm herself if she ever left her and told the teen that she would lose her friends if they thought she was a lesbian.

During those calls and later, in court, Correa admitted to the abuse, referring to her "past connection" with Cunnane.

Cunnane already knew her as the favorite teacher of the most athletic seventh- and eighth-grade girls at her Moraga middle school in the 1990s. It wasn't long before Cunnane wanted to be just like the P.E. teacher and coach revered by so many people in the Joaquin Moraga Middle School community.

Mercury News said:

She felt she could not escape Correa, who would watch her high school soccer games from afar with binoculars and would pop up wherever Cunnane was around town. Cunnane said Correa kept tabs on her via a secret cellphone that she provided and instructed her to hide in the hollowed out pages of a Spanish-English dictionary. She would sneak into Cunnane's family home and hide in her closet, or under her bed. Correa once broke her leg while jumping out of a second-story window to avoid the girl's parents.
