Former public school teacher, 33, charged after 'prolonged pattern of abuse' with teen boy

Ex-public school teacher, 33, faces charges for 'extended abuse' involving teenage boy

A former South Carolina teacher was charged with having a prolonged inappropriate relationship with a teenage boy. 

Nicole Ballew Callaham, 33, turned herself in to the Anderson County Detention Center Thursday, the Anderson County Sheriff’s Office said. 

She was charged with three counts of criminal sexual conduct with a minor and one count of contributing to the delinquency of a minor. 

The boy came forward after turning 18, “following time spent processing the experience and trauma associated with the abuse,” authorities said. 

In addition to the charges in Anderson County, the Greenville City Police Department has brought similar charges against Callaham. 

The alleged behavior occurred within its jurisdiction when the boy was attending school in Greenville. Callaham has stepped down from her position at Anderson School District Five.

Fox News Digital has reached out to the district.
