Tennessee Teacher Arrested in Student Sex Case

(Cleveland, Tennessee) A 32-year-old seventh-grade teacher formerly at Lake Forest Middle School, Casey Brock, was arrested yesterday after being indicted by a grand jury on multiple counts of sexual battery and solicitation of a minor.

The Bradley County Sheriff's Department launched an investigation after allegations surfaced in April. At the same time, Brock was placed on suspension by the school system. After investigating, the Sheriff's Office determined that the alleged offenses involved two male students.

Brock was booked into custody at the Bradley County Jail and later released on $25,000 bond. A court appearance is scheduled for July 20.
