A Texas teacher has pled guilty after being accused of a “sexual encounter” with a student.

Emily Marie Anderson was a special education inclusion support teacher and an assistant cheer sponsor at Canyon High School in New Braunfels during the 2020-2021 school year. However, things quickly changed after disturbing reports came out regarding an inappropriate relationship she engaged in with a student.

The New Braunfels Police Department began investigating the former educator after receiving reports from a 15-year-old student’s mother, who apparently found sexually explicit text messages on her son’s cell phone, according to KSTAT-TV. Investigations led authorities to Anderson, who was then arrested in August 2021 and charged with sexual assault of a child, and then again four months later in December, for charges related to the improper relationship between an educator and a student. Both charges are second-degree felonies.

Following her August arrest, the disgraced teacher was immediately placed on administrative leave by CHS Principal Dustin Davisson, who explained to families in a letter at the time:

Now, Anderson has officially entered her guilty plea during a Monday court appearance. She admitted to having sex with the victim, who had just turned 15 at the time, in a biology classroom closet, according to the New Braunfels Herald-Zeitung. The victim had previously confirmed the sexual relationship while speaking with a child advocate. Absolutely horrifying.

During the trial, the victim’s mother revealed her son now deals with depression and anxiety, and spoke directly to Anderson, lamenting:

She added:

She noted the “ideal punishment”
