In 1989, Mary was working as one of the respected teachers in Shorewood Elementary School, until her relationship with her 6-grade student, Vili Fualaau, flashed. Vili spent a lot of time with her and often visited her home. The secret of their relationship was revealed when Mary’s then-husband saw the love letter to his wife by the kid, one of his relatives later reported it to the school’s administration. She was then arrested and charged for the rape case. After the shock, her husband filed for a divorce and moved to Alsaka with his kids.

However, despite all the evidence and news about the relation of a teacher and a juvenile, Mary does not accept herself as a rapist. Instead, she says that the love between them started after Vili and she was taking classes in the same community college and is not guilty at all for the love that flourished between them.

When she was behind bars for the sexual assault, she was pregnant with Vili’s child. She was bailed out of the jail and gave birth to Vili’s daughter Audrey in May 1997. She was again sentenced to prison for six months and later after a lot of pleas; she was out of jail with a restriction to see Vili. 

But they were found violating the term and was arrested by the police from the parked car in Seattle. Again after the violation incident, she became pregnant with his second child. This led her to a longer prison sentence.

She revealed the details of their relationship and about their daughters after ten years of their wedding. Having been each other's support for more than 20 years now, are the two still together? The answer is no they have technically separated now though they do not have any hard feeling for each other. They have moved different paths because Vili started a weed business and did not want to involve his family in the matter. 

But the couple got back together in November 2018 after a year they filed for a legal separation in 2017 and were discovered around the Seattle area. Some wiki sources stated that "they’d been together and had now reconciled after working through a lot of issues."

Mary was discovered having sexual intercourse with her sixth-grade student, Vili in the late 90s. They had reconciled after she was released from prison in 2005. 

The couple's daughter spoke about their parent's scandal which surfaced over one and a half decade ago. One of her daughters, Audrey stated that the stories of their parents are not brought to her attention and she is adopted on the situation as she grew up with such circumstances where people used to be surprised with Vili and Mary's scandal.
