A Mississippi teacher is on the run from police with a teenage boy after being arrested and charged with sexual battery by a person in a position of trust or authority.
Nicole Jackson, a former teacher at Earl Travillion Attendance Center has a warrant out for her arrest, according to Fox News. An investigation was launched in March when police received tips alleging Jackson, 34, was having an inappropriate relationship with a student. Jackson was taken to the Forrest County Jail on April 10 and was released on a $10,000 bond, WDAM reported. Weeks later, Lisa O’Neal reported her 16-year-old son Oscar O’Neal II missing. O’Neal’s mother said he was last seen around 1 a.m. at his home in Hattiesburg, Mississippi.
