Autumn Faulkner's case will now head to circuit court.

ELKINS -- An Elkins Middle School teacher accused of having a sexual relationship with a former student was in court Monday.

Autumn Faulkner, 26 of Beverly, waived her a preliminary hearing.

The state police arrested Faulkner at her home and charged her with sexual abuse by a guardian, after they found evidence she was having a relationship with a 15-year-old boy.

Faulkner posted a $50,000 bond shortly after being arrested and has been out of jail since then.

Need more details before I pass judgement. I'm sure there's more to the story than meets the ear. Unless she forced herself on him, I believe it was a harmless game of slap & tickle and we should not waste another tax dollar on it.

sick of not havingtheseteachers....You are a SICKO . You are encouraging to other sickos . Probably a pervert yourself . It's a shame that they don't put all the sex offenders in Alcatraz together , and stop wasting taxpayers money on keeping track of them , while we have to watch over out kids constantly . Put them in Alcatraz , give them some veggie seeds , and let them do to others around them what they have done to the innocent .
