The principal of the Mavericks High of Palm Springs charter school has been suspended after police say they caught her in a marijuana-filled car with one of her students.
Krista E. Morton, 45, of Wellington, was arrested Wednesday after cops received a call about possible sexual activity in a parking lot by a park in North Palm Beach.
Police say they found Morton in the car with a 19-year-old senior from the school. The report says Morton’s “shirt was unbuttoned, exposing her shoulders and part of her chest.”
Morton first told officers that she and the student were “just friends,” an arrest report stated. Then cops say she claimed he was a stranger she had picked up off the street because she was lonely.
Later, the 19-year-old student admitted to cops that Morton was the principal of his school.
Cops said they smelled marijuana coming from the car and discovered a plastic container containing marijuana.
Both Morton and the student were arrested on marijuana possession charges. Morton spent the night in jail and was released this morning, jail records show.
