A special education teacher was allegedly caught having sex in her truck with the 17-year-old brother of one of her former students.
Michelle Lynn Hancock, 41, was allegedly caught romping with the underage boy on Tuesday by police investigating a suspicious vehicle in Palm Bay, Florida, according to an arrest report obtained by People.
She allegedly confessed to having sex with him three or four times — while the boy said it was up to 20 times, according to the documents.
The special education teacher at Heritage High School in Brevard County allegedly met the teen through his older brother, whom she had taught, police said.
The teen was taking virtual classes after dropping out of the high school last year — but began visiting Hancock at the school, where they kissed in her classroom, according to the report.
A Brevard Public Schools spokesperson told Florida Today that Hancock was no longer employed by the district.
“We are deeply troubled by these allegations. The District remains committed to providing a safe and supportive learning environment for all students,” the district said.
Hancock is charged with unlawful sexual activity with a minor, multiple counts of lews or lascivious touching and traveling to meet a minor, among other charges. The age of consent in Florida is 18.
She is being held on a $525,000 bond, jail records show.
