BRIDGEPORT — A 45-year-old Stratford teacher’s aide had sex with a 15-year-old boy, police said.
Police said the relationship between the boy and Kyle Damato-Kushel, who worked at Wooster Middle School and had been the boy’s preschool teacher, was discovered by Damato-Kushel’s husband, who awoke to hear voices in their Overland Drive, Stratford, home and fearing it was a burglary, called police.
Damato-Kushel offered the boy $900 if he wouldn’t reveal their relationship, police said. They said Damato-Kushel’s DNA was found in the boy’s underwear.
Damato-Kushel was arraigned Monday in Superior Court. Charged with second-degree sexual assault, impairing the morals of a child and tampering with a witness, she didn’t enter plea and was allowed to remain free on $50,000 bond.
