Texas authorities arrest Laquey High School teacher accused of inappropriate relations with a student
LAQUEY, Mo. (KY3) – A Laquey High School teacher accused of having an inappropriate relationship with a student has been arrested in Texas.
Authorities in the San Antonio area arrested Hailey Clifton-Carmack of Waynesville. She faces several sex crime charges.
In early December, a school resource officer reported a witness claimed saying the teacher and a 16-year-old student were in a relationship. Investigators say they found messages on Clifton-Carmack’s phone related to the relationship. In an interview, investigators say Clifton-Carmack denied the accusation.
School leaders say she hadn’t been at the school since December and didn’t expect her to return.
Authorities also arrested Mark Creighton, accused of knowing about the relationship but failing to report it. He faces a charge of endangering the welfare of a child.
