[Previous 9/24/10 post]
The national media has picked up the story which is now being called the "Sex Party Case." Here are some fresh developments.

Lindsay resigned from her job Monday.

Grabarkiewicz was released from the Spartanburg County Detention Center Wednesday morning after posting a $25,000 bond and agreeing to home detention, according to the Spartanburg Herald-Journal.

She was also served with divorce papers by her husband of 17 years, Eddie Grabarkiewicz, who has asked for "complete care, control and custody" of the couple's three children, ages 12, 9 and 7, and child support, his lawyer told the paper.

Lindsay remains in jail on a $50,000 bond.

If the allegations prove to be true, it must be said that these two teachers irreparably screwed up their lives.

Carolina Teachers Accused of Doing Youths
[Previous 9/21/10]
(Spartanburg, South Carolina) Two female teachers, Sarah Jane Lindsay, 42, and Audrey Beidleman Grabarkiewicz, 44, were arrested yesterday for allegedly engaging in sex with teenagers while providing them with alcohol and marijuana during parties at their homes.

Sarah Lindsay, a teacher at Boiling Springs Elementary School, faces nine counts of contributing to the delinquency of a minor and criminal sex with a minor between 11 and 14 years of age.

Audrey Grabarkiewicz, a preschool teacher at Lake Bowen Baptist Church, faces 10 counts of contributing to the delinquency of a minor. She reportedly engaged in sex with some of her victims but they were over 16 years of age. Consequently, she wasn't charged for the sex. I don't understand.

A bond hearing is scheduled for Tuesday morning.
