OG Freaky Teacher Mary Kay Letourneau’s Student-Husband Divorces Her After 12 Years Of Marriage

Vili Fulaau Files For Separation From Mary Kay Letourneau The teacher/student sex scandal that rocked the 90’s has come full circle now, as the marriage between Mary Kay Letourneau and Vili Fulaau has wound up in a split. People reports that Fualaau filed for separation after months of trouble between the couple. Letourneau made headlines back in 1996 when it was discovered that the ten 34-year-old teacher had lured her 6th grade student Fulaau into a sexual relationship, even once defying a court order to stay away from him just to sleep with him again. She ended up pleading guilty to child rape and serving 7 years in prison, only to get out, marry him, and have 2 children with him. At first glance it seems only natural that Vili would be ready to split — he’s 33 now, and their relationship began when he was only 12 — but as Vili shared with RadarOnline , the REAL reason for their split has nothing to do with their relationship romance: “It’s not necessarily what you think. Everything is fine between us. All the rumors that you hear between us. It’s fine. Of course [we are still in love]. A piece of paper doesn’t break someone’s feelings!” Instead, he says he’s splitting from Mary Kay — on paper anyway — to get his legal marijuana business off the ground. And seeing as how his wife served 7 years in prison for smashing him before he even fully hit puberty…her record isn’t the cleanest. “When you want to get licensed, they do background checks on both parties. If I decide to be a part of it I have to be licensed and I have to be vetted and so does a spouse. She has a past. She has a history.” Interesting. We doubt he knows how to healthily date a new woman anyway, seeing as how he’s been smashing a woman old enough to be his mother since elementary school…

Watch: What a Legal Pot Economy Would Look Like

Sometimes a cartoon can be worth a thousand words. … or even more than 100,000. Haik Hoisington's 'Flower' video has hit a nerve and has gone viral on the internet. The Flower was released by the online news service AlterNet on July 29 – and in just five days has been viewed more than 175,000 times. This fall Californians will go the polls with a chance to make history. They will be able to cast a vote to tax and regulate marijuana like alcohol or cigarettes. California's Proposition 19 is one of many similar initiatives cropping up on state ballots across the country. Whether it's calls for decriminalization or medical marijuana the end of cannabis prohibition has never seemed closer. In this short animated parable, “The Flower,” award winning artist Haik Hoisington contrasts a legal marijuana economy with an illegal one, to show how everyone stands to benefit from ending the war on weed. “The Flower” contrasts a utopian society that freely farms and consumes a pleasure giving flower with a society where the same flower is illegal and its consumption is prohibited. The animation is a meditation on the social and economic costs of marijuana prohibition. added by: Stoneyroad
