Elementary school teacher, Lesley Brown, caught in bathroom with teen, nude photos found on phone
A Florida fourth grade teacher at has been arrested after police said nude photos and “lewd” text messages were found on a 17-year-old boy’s phone.
Lesley Brown, 45, a teacher at Fuguitt Elementary in Largo Florida, was seen entering a public restroom with a teen boy Monday.
Police say the pair were at the Highland Recreation Center, inside for ten minutes, when police arived.
Brown told police she goes to the gym three days a week and the 17-year-old boy is her workout partner and spotter.
During questioning, police said both Brown and the boy adamantly denied anything sexual occurred. They claim they locked the door because they heard voices and didn’t want it to appear as if something was going on.
The teen’s mother was contacted and took custody of the boy. Brown was issued a trespass warning for the complex by recreation staff.
Later in the evening, police said they obtained cell phone images found on the teen’s cell phone containing nude pictures of Brown which also included lewd text communication. Brown was arrested on two felony counts of transmission of material harmful to minors.
She has been transported to the Pinellas County Jail.
Police said the relationship between Brown and the teen is not in any way affiliated with her position as a teacher nor did the two meet in an educational setting. She is listed as a reading and writing teacher at the elementary school.
Brown was released late Tuesday on a $10,000 bond.
