This one is not good news for those looking to get inspired through social media influencers and most definitely not one for TikTok star Luke Rockwell AKA Teacher Luke’s fandom. What is it, we shall tell you in the rest of the writing.
TikTok Star Luke Rockwell aka Teacher Luke Arrested
So, the update is that TikTok Star Luke Rockwell has been locked up in Thailand for allegedly having s** with a minor and recording it. According to the Bangkok Post, he was arrested in Bangkok on 3 September 2023.
There is no doubt as to whether he really did that because he also accepted the charges as he was taken to the Khlong Tan police station.
It was the mother of the victim, a 16-year-old girl, who filed a complaint with police.
In the complaint, the mother revealed that her daughter had been messaging Luke before the relationship escalated to a physical one. Luke reportedly taught English at a private Christian school where the victim was a student. The victim’s mother explained in her statement how she grew concerned when her daughter fell ill with abdominal pains caused by chlamydia and gonorrhea. This, he said, led to an emergency trip to the hospital. And so, it was there she learned what Luke had done and immediately contacted authorities. The matriarch, not publicly identified, therefore contacted the Department of Welfare for Children and Women who along with Khlong Tan, took Luke into custody.
The victim’s mother actually gave more details. Speaking to the Daily Mail, she revealed about her daughter telling her the first time they had s**, Teacher Luke used protection but after he did not use any. Also, he spoke about her daughter telling her how Luke had told her to keep everything a secret until she turned 18. “He told my daughter that he loved her and would let her come live with him when she’s no longer a minor,” she added.
The victim’s mother also told the Daily Mail that she wants the world to know who Teacher Luke really is. Even though it is embarrassing for her to tell people about what’s happening to her family, she said, she hopes it prevents Teacher Luke from ever taking advantage of any girl in the future.
At this point, officials said an investigation into Luke’s case is still ongoing. Also, at the time, police had yet to confirm if or not the allegations that the teacher gave the minor STDs were true.
What is known is he now faces up to a decade and fines of about $560 USD.
