An investigative report released in early 2013 revealed that Felicia Barahona, then a 32-year-old science teacher at DeWitt Clinton High School in The Bronx , had a four-month affair with a 17-year-old student of the school.

The teacher got pregnant after allegedly telling her underage lover ‘not to worry’ about protection  because she “didn’t like condoms”. Barahona delivered a son in August 2012.
Barahona, who befriended Duran at the age of 15, had waited 2 years until her teenage lover was of legal age of consent before the pair began a sexual relationship in 2011. Thereafter, it is believed that the couple were having amorous trysts five times a week, including weekends, according to the investigation for which they were both interviewed.
The science teacher teacher was so besotted with her pupil, she allegedly went so far as to purchase the pair wedding rings during their brief romance.

The super of the building on West 153rd Street in Upper Manhattan, called 911 after seeing Felicia Barahona dead, inside her third-floor unit. Her son Miguel was found also dead in the apt.

However, in 2013 Barahona kicked Duran out of her home for drinking, just four months into their co-habitation, shortly after she learned that she was pregnant with their child. On the day she gave birth to their boy she was fired from her city teaching job, in August 2012.
Neighbors who were shocked after mother and child found dead in apartment, as well as acquaintances of the mother-of-two, described her demeanor as extremely protective, to the point of being obsessive.
Photos posted on Barahona’s mother’s Facebook page at the time showed the newborn baby boy in a pink outfit, and the her neighbors in Harlem said she would sometimes dress her 4-year-old son as a girl.
On her Facebook page, Barahona who also had an eight-year-old daughter from a previous relationship who did not live with her, indicated that she studied forensic science at John Jay College of Criminal Justice and also taught at the school. She described her martial status as ‘divorced.’
