Text messages between former Hillsborough County teacher Stephanie Ragusa and one of the students she is accused of having sex with were released today by the State Attorney's Office.
She told the boy she loved him, and they discussed dating and her giving him money, according to the messages, which were released in hundreds of pages of discovery documents. Also released was Ragusa's last will and testament, in which she addressed a student.
"Please finish school," she wrote in the will. "I cannot believe how lucky I was to have met you. Deep down, you are so warm + caring. Meet your potential, find love, happiness + a family of your own. U deserve no less." She also wrote that she wants to be cremated and have a teaspoon of her ashes thrown into the Gulf of Mexico and on the Forum in Rome.
