A former middle school teacher in Wisconsin is facing serious allegations of sexual assault against an eighth-grade student. According to Fox 6 Milwaukee, Tyesha Bolden, 34, appeared in court for the first time Saturday, and is charged with second-degree sexual assault of a person under 16 as well as providing a dangerous weapon to a person under 18.
The incident came to light when the victim’s mother filed a criminal complaint on July 25. She informed the police that her son had taken a relative’s car and was probably at Bolden’s house. After further investigation, the mother found explicit photos in messages between the former teacher and her son.
The Christian school, Pilgrim Lutheran, acted quickly upon receiving this information. Shaun Luehring, the CEO of LUMIN Schools, which includes Pilgrim Lutheran School, reported that Bolden was terminated within one day of the allegations. Luehring also noted that the former teacher had violated the expectations of the faith-based network of schools.
The incident has caused quite a stir in the community. Luehring stated, “We strive to be a network of schools that is Christian in every sense of the word. Therefore, we expect our staff to represent Jesus Christ and the mission of LUMIN Schools – not only in their work but in their personal lives as well.”
Bolden’s bond has been set at $2,500. If convicted, she could face more than 40 years in prison. This case is still ongoing and the community is eagerly awaiting the final verdict.
