A 26-year-old teacher, Virginia Houston Hinckley, a  currently suspended teacher from A St. Augustine High School, turned herself in to police last Wednesday after learning that she had a warrant out for her arrest. Hinckley is accused of having had sex with a 16-year-old male student who was in one of the classes she taught. According toNews4Jax,

Special Victims’ Unit detectives began the investigation Oct. 20 after allegations that Hinckley had sex with a 16-year-old male student who was in her class.

Police interviewed witnesses and search warrants were obtained and used as evidence in the investigation.

Detectives then turned the investigation over to the State Attorney’s Office, which issued the arrest warrant Wednesday afternoon.

Hinckley was suspended with pay in October pending the outcome of the sheriff’s office and school investigation, according to the St. Johns County school district.

Hinckley was reportedly released after posting a $10,000 bond.
