Georgia Educator Accused of Sex with Boy, 10

(Valdosta, Georgia) A 33-year-old employee at Lowndes County Middle School, Annetta Nikki Terrell, has been accused of forcing a 10-year-old boy to engage in sex with her in September 2005.

Nikki Terrell has been charged with child molestation. Her former husband, 36-year-old Joseph Terrell, faces a similar charge.

The Lowndes County school board released this statement:

"This is a personnel matter of a confidential nature. Lowndes County Schools will follow Georgia law and local school board policies in dealing with the situation. While this is under investigation, safety is our first priority. This employee will not be allowed on any Lowndes County campus or around any students."

Getting convincing evidence of the crime is probably difficult for an episode that occurred six and one-half years ago.
