PE Teacher Accused of Sex with Girl

(Greenville, South Carolina) A 46-year-old physical education and health teacher formerly with Greenville County Schools, Melissa Kellie McBee, has been accused of engaging in sexual contact with a 15-year-old girl.

Reportedly, the girl lived with McBee and sexual contact allegedly occurred between August 2005 and January 2007.

The girl, now 21, isn’t being identified because she was a minor when the crime occurred, deputies said.

During that time, warrants state, the suspect also provided alcohol to the teenager, leading to a separate charge of contributing to the delinquency of a minor.

McBee resigned as a teacher from GCS on March 25, according to the system. Administrators placed her on leave in Feb. 2010, when they said they learned of the accusations.

McBee was booked into custody at the Greenville County Detention Center with bond to be determined.
