Mary Schnell, 24, substitute teacher, Aurora School District, Aurora OH

Mary Schnell was arrested Monday, accused of having a romantic, sexual relationship with a 16 year old student.

According to Portage County Sheriff David Doak, the 24 year old substitute teacher with the Aurora School District, was indicted on two counts of sexual battery, both of which are third degree felonies.

Schnell was caught by Streetsboro Police during surveillance of a hotel parking lot along State Route 14 and 303, near the Ohio Turnpike. They found the teacher and student in the car talking. Police also allege that Schnell and the student engaged in sexual activity in the parking lot of a bar in Mantua Township.

Schnell pleaded not guilty, and her jury trial is set for Oct 12.

Update Jan 26 2012: Schnell has pleaded guilty to having sexual contact with one of her male students in spring 2011. The jury trial was supposed to start next Tuesday, but is no longer necessary. The sentencing will be left up to the judge.
