P. v. Stark
In separate incidents while working as a driving instructor, 22-year-old defendant Miles Edgar Stark initiated explicit sexual conversations which made a student feel uncomfortable. On two such occasions, the driving student was a 16-year-old girl. The student in the other incident was a 15-year-old girl. Neither girl told defendant that the conversations made them feel uncomfortable. The 16-year-old student answered his sexual questions without protest; the other simply changed the subject. However, both complained to others about feeling uncomfortable and offended. The 16-year-old girl then hid a tape recorder in her purse during a driving lesson and used it to record defendants sexual comments. At the end of the lesson, she held up the recorder so that he could see it. Defendant immediately went to the owners of the driving school and reported that he had engaged in inappropriate sexual conversation with the student.
