A 25-year-old teacher accused of having inappropriate relationships with 12 boys and buying them vapes and alcohol is reported to have been turned into the cops by her own mum.
Former high school science teacher Jaden Charles was nabbed by officers on Tuesday, and charged with grooming and serious assault against a child after a tip-off.
The young teacher, who used to work at a school in Texas, was arrested after city marshalls looked into reports of students vaping at school. City Marshal Joe Martinez has said the teacher gave vapes to the kids over a year and a half ago, even before she started teaching.
Ms Charles has decided to leave her job at the school after the allegations. Marshal Martinez shared Charles allegedly had inappropriate contact with two students before she took up employment at the school, as reported by the local newspaper.
Authorities are still investigating the case and hope to talk to more possible victims. Marshal Martinez added: “I think we’re going to add up several more charges.”
Some parents told the police they were worried because their kids went off with a teacher. Chief Eden Garcia of Alice Police Department said to KIII 3 News: “We do have parents that were concerned and made some calls about their children being with a teacher. We do have video of the teacher with a student at one of the hotels,” reports the Mirror.
