(KTNC)-- Arraignment is scheduled later this month for a former southeast Nebraska teacher accused of having a sexual relationship with a student.
The Pawnee Republican reports that 24-year-old Carrie Miller waived a preliminary hearing during an appearance in Johnson County Court Wednesday. The case was transferred to Johnson County District Court, where Miller will be arraigned on June 30.
Miller, a former teacher at Johnson County Central, is charged with first-degree sexual assault. Authorities say she carried on a sexual relationship with a 15-year-old male student.
The boy, who is now 16, told investigators the relationship lasted for about a year, with contact coming mostly in Miller’s vehicle at an abandoned farmstead in Nemaha County, Nebraska.
Miller faces up to 50 years in prison if she is convicted.
