A Florida middle school teacher allegedly sent a nude image of herself to a 14-year-old student, authorities said. 

Oliver Fell, 28, formerly a teacher at Carlos E. Haile Middle School in Brandenton, faces charges of lewd conduct involving a student by an authority figure and sending harmful content to a minor, as stated by the Manatee County Sheriff’s Office. 

The investigation began in March when the student brought the allegations to a school resource deputy on March 3, claiming that Fell had allegedly been communicating with him through Snapchat since December 2024.

Irene Nikitopoulos, the principal at Carlos E. Haile Middle School, acknowledged the matter in a letter to parents. 

She said it “took several weeks of investigation to confirm the allegations of the illegal communications” and that Fell was reassigned.

She said the district continues to cooperate with the investigation.

Fox News Digital has reached out to the school district.
