Michelle Ladd
(Bunker Hill, Indiana) A 41-year-old assistant teacher at Maconaquah School Corporation’s alternative school program, Michelle Ladd, accused of having sexual relationships with two 17-year-old boys.

Ladd faces charges of child seduction, illegal transfer of a handgun and furnishing alcohol to a minor.

The juvenile told deputies his first sexual encounter with Ladd happened in her home, where he lived for two weeks when he was placed on in-home detention, according to a probable cause affidavit.

During that time, the juvenile told deputies Ladd spent several thousand dollars to buy him alcohol and gifts, including two vehicles.

The juvenile turned 18 in 2011, and he told deputies he and Ladd continued their relationship until the summer of 2013.

Around that time, deputies said Ladd started another sexual relationship with a 17-year-old boy enrolled in Maconaquah’s alternative school.

Ladd was booked into custody at the Miami County Jail and released on $56,000 bond.
