Teacher's aide, 24, who was reported to cops after co-worker overheard student saying he may have gotten her pregnant is indicted on claims she had sex with THREE teens at the school

Ashlyn Faye Bell, 24, is accused of having sex with the three boys - two who are 17 and one who is 16 - on separate occasions at her home in New Boston, Texas in November last year

A Texas teacher's aide is facing up to 60 years in prison after being charged with having sexual intercourse with three teenage students.

On Thursday, Ashlyn Faye Bell, 24, was indicted by a Bowie County Grand Jury on two counts of improper relationship between educator and student and one count of sexual assault of a child.

Belle was employed at the Texas High School in Texarkana between August 2019 and May 2020, where she worked both in the library and as a classroom aide.

Police started investigating Bell earlier this summer after a teacher overheard a group of the boys talking about how one of them may have gotten the aide pregnant.

Two of her alleged victims are aged 17, and the other is 16. While the age of consent in Texas is 17, it is illegal for an educator to have sex with a student of any age unless they are married to one another.

The first victim, 17, claims he had sex with Bell at her New Boston home over Thanksgiving break last November.

Bell allegedly began communicating with the minor on SnapChat and picked him up from a truck stop before taking him home with her.

The victim claims that Bell, who is a single mom, put her young child to sleep before luring him into her bedroom.

A second victim, also aged 17, says he also had sex with Bell that same autumn.

According to The Texakarna Gazette, he allegedly visited her home on multiple occasions as she was 'tutoring' him. The teen says they had sex during one of those sessions.

Bell, who is the mother of at least one child and , was working as a teacher's assistant and in the library at Texas High School at the time of the alleged offences

Meanwhile, a third boy, aged 16, says he had sex with Bell in late November, and she picked him up from his house with her child in the backseat.

It was not immediately clear if Bell is or was recently pregnant.

She has been released on a $150,000 bond and the case is due to return to court later in the year.

The HS2 money pit: Ministers are told first stage of high-speed rail line may cost another £800m... six months after a budget increase saw total costs soar by £20.6bn to £43billion

Ministers have been told that Phase One of controversial rail line HS2 could cost £800million more than planned. It comes just six months after a budget increase saw total predicted costs for the first stage of the high-speed line soar by £20.6billion to £43billion. In a written statement to Parliament, HS2 Minister Andrew Stephenson said half of this figure is due to preparation of the route for construction involving 'more significant challenges than anticipated'. This includes the need to remove more asbestos than expected. Another 'significant cost pressure' worth £400 million has also been identified during the development of designs for Euston station.

Tests may spare school bubbles from isolating: Children could avoid disruption to lessons by being screened for Covid more often under new proposal

Ministers will explore whether children could take more Covid tests instead of self-isolating to minimise disruption to their schooling. Sajid Javid said he was seeking ‘fresh advice’ on the current policy, which sees up to 250,000 pupils miss school every day. He revealed he would discuss the subject with Education Secretary Gavin Williamson after MPs expressed concerns about children being kept at home for ten days – even after a negative PCR test – because a member of their classroom bubble has been infected. It came as the Children’s Commissioner told how pupils had experienced ‘real trauma’ during successive lockdowns. Sajid Javid said he was seeking ‘fresh advice’ on the current policy where children self-isolate, which sees up to 250,000 pupils miss school every day Dame Rachel de Souza described the class bubble system as ‘very very restrictive’, adding: ‘I think everybody would like it if we could get back to normal, as soon as possible.’ Former health minister Steve Brine tol...
