Provocative pictures of a Tampa-area middle school teacher accused of sex with a student have surfaced on the Internet.

Reading teacher Debra Beasley LaFave, 23, is a newlywed who is accused of having intercourse with and performing oral sex on a 14-year-old student at Greco Middle School several times.

The pictures were reportedly taken when LaFave was modeling at 18-year-old.

LaFave was released from the Hillsborough County Jail after posting $5,000 bail. Her bail was reduced from $15,000.

The 2002 graduate of the University of South Florida was married 11 months ago.

Temple Terrace police said that LaFave was arrested at her home after the 14-year-old boy told his mother the allegations. LaFave was reportedly never the boy's teacher.

A student at the middle school, Tarron Stewart, said. "She (LaFave) went on a field trip and she bought him some candy or whatever, and she started dropping him off everywhere he needed to go -- him and his friends. "

Lafave was placed on administrative leave and is expected to be suspended without pay at a school board meeting next month.

She is charged with lewd and lascivious battery.
