Nassau PTA Takes Hands-On Approach To Middle School Sex-Ed

Police arrested Joan Tuckruskye, a 44 year old mother and PTA Vice President, after finding her in the backseat of her SUV with a 13 year old boy.

The parked, running 2008 Nissan Pathfinder behind Meadow Elementary School in Baldwin seemed suspicious to officers Friday night, said Det. Lt. Kevin Smith.
“They tapped on a rear window,” Smith said of the two First Precinct officers. The windows were fogged, he said, but the officers could make out two figures inside.
“They noticed both of the individuals were not clothed from the waist down,” Smith said.
The officers asked for identification, and the boy said he was 18. Smith said police were skeptical about the age of the boy, who later said he was 15. Later that evening, during an examination at Nassau University Medical Center, it was determined that the boy, whom police would not name, is 13, Smith said.

Tuckruskye’s husband seemed to be a little irritated about the new attention his family was receiving.
