What happened to Mary Kay Letourneau after her release from prison?
Ahead of Letourneau’s August 2004 release from prison, Fualaau, then 21, said he was “kind of nervous.”
“But,” he told Seattle’s KING 5 News, “I know that I do love her.”
Talking to Larry King in her first post-prison interview, Letourneau said she and Fualaau were engaged. Asked if their daughters understood what was going on, she explained, “I mean, the story is that their mother was away at prison. And now, finally, their mommy and daddy are back together. And that’s the story. And I’ve told my oldest one, at least, that, you know, mommy’s doing a time-out.”
Letourneau said that, overall, she felt “blessed.”
Playing a character who cloaked herself in the trappings of normal, Moore described her approach to USA Today, “It’s like she’s going to go to this extreme and say, ‘This is who I am, and I am a mother, and I am a wife, and I am a baker, and I am feminine.’ When in fact she’s done something that’s so different, so transgressive, there’s this chasm in who she is and how she presents.”
