Police arrested Daugherty on Jan. 8th. The former teacher is charged with two counts of third-degree sexual abuse, five counts of sexual abuse by a school employee, sexual exploitation of a minor and lascivious conduct with a minor. Documents indicate Daugherty and the victim allegedly began talking, texting and communicating via social media site Twitter about explicit acts and also exchanged multiple topless photos.

The victim told police Daugherty kissed her one evening after school, while two other instances included the teacher touching the victim’s private areas. At least one of the encounters happened after school in a classroom. Daugherty denies the charges. He resigned from T.J. on Feb. 3rd. A trial is the case is currently scheduled for March 24th.

In late January, a second alleged victim came forward. The now 18-year-old female – who was 17 at the time of the alleged acts – told police that she exposed herself to Daugherty after being asked to do so. On multiple occasions, Daugherty allegedly asked the girl to perform sex acts on him, and she complied. An arrest affidavit notes the victim told police she was not forced to engage in sex acts with the teacher. A court date has not been set in the second case.
