Corey Hogue, 37, a physical education and health teacher and varsity basketball coach at Oceanside High School in Oceanside, California has reportedly been arrested on allegations of having a two year long sexual relationship with a female student who was 15-years-old when the alleged relationship began.

Reportedly, Hogue was arrested and charged with two counts of rape and two counts of lewd and lascivious acts.

Hogue came to the attention of authorities in late October when the alleged victim contacted police and disclosed the alleged relationship. Police say that detectives subsequently interviewed Hogue and determined there was enough evidence to arrest him for the alleged crimes.

Hogue was placed on administrative leave by the school system on October 30th after school officials learned of the allegations.

The alleged victim told investigators that the sexual encounters took place at Houge’s house in Oceanside, where he lives with his wife and children, including a daughter who is a freshman at the same school.

On Twitter, this page purports to be that of Corey Hogue. What purported to be Corey Hogue’s blog has been taken down since his arrest.

Interestingly, neither on Twitter or on the former blog is there any indication of the pending allegations against Corey Hogue although he was reportedly suspended by the school on October 30th. The most recent Tweet is dated November 16th and the last blog post was dated November 6th, a post apparently written by Corey Hogue’s wife.
