US Teacher, 26, Arrested For Sexually Abusing Teen She Met In Church

A teacher from the United States was arrested for sexually abusing a teenager she met at an Arkansas church. The 26-year-old woman, Reagan Gray, was arrested after it was discovered that she had been sexually abusing the 15-year-old since 2020 while volunteering at the Little Rock Immanuel Baptist Church. Court documents revealed that the boy’s parents reported the woman to a senior pastor at the church after finding numerous inappropriate text messages on their son’s phone.

Gray, who worked as a teacher at Little Rock Christian Academy, was suspended from her volunteer role and later put on administrative leave from her teaching position at Sylvan Hills Middle School. The investigation found that Gray had been exchanging explicit messages with the teenager and had been engaging in sexual activities with him. The teenager claimed that Gray had given him oral sex but they avoided intercourse so that he could “stay pure.”

The victim stated that the abuse occurred multiple times in Gray’s car or house. Gray was released on a $20,000 bail following the issuance of an arrest warrant. She is currently facing charges of sexual assault.

The case has gained widespread attention and sparked concerns about the protection of minors in educational and religious settings.
