An eighth-grade teacher in Arizona and her husband were both fired from their school jobs after recording explicit OnlyFans videos in her classroom, which she says was necessary to supplement their low salaries.
Thunderbolt Middle School science teacher Samantha Peer – known online as “Khloe Karter” – reportedly uploaded the X-rated videos to her OnlyFans account, which her students eventually discovered and shared amongst themselves, according to Today’s News-Herald.
Her husband, Dillon Peer – a Nautilus Elementary School fourth-grade teacher – was said to be the man who took part in the pornographic clips.
She resigned “under pressure” on October 31 after having been placed on paid administrative leave and probation. Dillon was reportedly let go four days later.
Samantha Peer released a video on Friday, revealing that she and her husband had resorted to creating X-rated content due to their low salaries.
“My children are the most important thing to me, and I’m already spending countless hours outside of my contract time on extra school activities, and I don’t think it’s fair that I have to sacrifice my own children’s time because our professional salary did not pay enough,” she said, WFLA reported.
She went on to say she began making the content at the beginning of the summer, claiming her family was unable “to survive on our two teachers’ income.”
“It got to a point where our family was not able to survive on our two teachers’ income,” she said. “I chose an anonymous name as well as blocking the entire state of Arizona on OnlyFans so it wasn’t accessible to anyone living in the state,” Samantha explained.
Samantha did admit to making the explicit content in her classroom
The teacher admitted she created and advertised explicit content in a classroom, but insisted that she did so after-school hours on the weekend, when no students would be around.
It remains unclear of how her students learned of their teacher’s OnlyFans page, which was eventually circulated around the school.
On October 24, she was placed on administrative leave after a community member told the school district about the X-rated videos.
“Two days later, I had asked that an individual that was assigned to my case be removed because they had created a hostile work environment between me and other co-workers for several years during my employment,” she said.
She went on to say that “I did not feel safe with them knowing this information, and I felt that they would spread it in retaliation for their own personal vendetta,” Samantha added.
The teacher also said the district promised her it would not publicize the incident if she resigned before a school board meeting. However, the videos and images were still shared amongst teachers.
“These teachers were also telling students my anonymous name and showing them my page,” Samantha alleged. “This was also sent to the parents and they decided to do the same thing as well.”
The school notified parents about the explicit content on November 7, where they confirmed Peer had been fired.
“It has come to our attention that students have been airdropping explicit material. The images did not happen during the school day and the person depicted no longer works for LHUSD,” the email said, Arizona’s Family reported.
The school also requested that parents “please remove all images from your child’s phone and talk with them about the appropriate use of technology.”
As of Monday, no criminal charges have been filed, according to the outlet.
One parent of an either-grader, Alea Bilksi, said she was “absolutely outraged” that kids “have been exposed to this,” claiming it was public and “an easy Google search to find everything.”
“I am absolutely outraged. Our kids shouldn’t have been exposed to this,” Bilski said, adding that Samantha’s account was linked to her non-alias social media pages.
“If it was ‘just’ an Only Fans account I wouldn’t be as upset because then that would 100% be on the kids’ parents, but this was public and an easy Google search to find everything,” Bilski told the News-Herald.
Another parent, Kristina Minor, said Samantha “was sharing these links to her sex site on her social media accounts, which are public, (on) which children follow her.”
“I’m a taxpayer. I am not paying these teachers to film pornograhy. They’re being paid to teach our kids, and set higher standards for them,” she said.
Meanwhile, school spokeswoman Andrea Helart told the News-Herald that the district will comment on the incident, the News-Herald reports.
