Florida Teacher Busted for Cocaine

(Clay County, Florida) A 23-year-old fifth-grade math teacher at Plantation Oaks Elementary School, Ashlea Eucker, has been accused of possessing cocaine at school during school hours.

Eucker was arrested on charges of possession of a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia.

Eucker was very upset while at school Wednesday due to a personal issue and was meeting with Principal Lee Oliver, the assistant principal and Guidance Counselor Priscilla Dobson.

Oliver suggested Eucker take the rest of the day off and not go back to the classroom. When Dobson went back to her room to get Eucker's purse, police say a small baggie containing a white powder was plainly visible in the unzipped purse along with a straw.

Details on booking are unavailable.
