A Missouri high school teacher says she has been placed on leave after officials discovered that she was performing on a pornography website to supplement her salary.

Brianna Coppage, 28, who taught English at St. Clair High School, says her teaching days are probably over, but she acknowledged she knew the risks.

Coppage told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch that she was put on leave on Wednesday after being interviewed by two administrators. Her access to school email and other software was suspended while the district investigates, she said.

“It was kind of always like this cloud hanging over my head, like I never knew when I would be discovered,” Coppage said in an interview. “Then, about two weeks ago, my husband and I were told that people were finding out about it. So I knew this day was coming.”

      From googling:

      1. It is unclear if OnlyFans actually accepts debit cards. Some verbiage says yes but people don’t realize they have a credit card instead of a debit. Others say no but there is no difference between a cc/dc. I assume there is a regional discrepancy there since I know europe loves debit cards. I also suspect it has more to do with the backend (? visa, mastercard, the other ones) than anything else since there is a constant war against sex workers in that regard.
      2. At least in the US, the vast majority (I want to say “all” but) bank accounts and debit/credit cards require a parent to co-sign if you aren’t 18. I have no idea how that manfiests as providing credit card info to a website but it does mean the parents have access to the statement and will see the porn charges.

        Interesting. It’s been quite a while since I was that age, so I don’t really remember needing a parental co-signer. One more thing, supposedly prepaid visa cards work so there’s always that.
