Idaho junior high teacher and coach arrested for raping a male student.

Eric McDermott is a high school teacher and coach who was recently accused of raping a male student. He was arrested on Monday and is facing serious charges if he’s found guilty.

Many NBA fans are familiar with a player with the same last name. Doug McDermott is a 31-year-old forward who plays for the San Antonio Spurs. However, there isn’t any evidence that he’s related to the disgraced high school coach.

Eric McDermott is a high school teacher from Meridian, Idaho. He worked at Fairmont Junior High in Boise, where he also served as a coach for the boys’ basketball team. He taught geography and was listed as an eighth-grade teacher on the school’s website.

According to Idaho Statesman, the teacher allegedly assaulted a teenage boy. The two have been in contact since the boy was 15 and McDermott contacted him on a dating site at the age of 16.

McDermott allegedly communicated with the teen through the site for several days.

Authorities believe McDermott then picked the boy up and raped him at his home.

Boise School District told parents in a letter that McDermott was put on leave after school officials learned about the arrest.
