SCIOTO COUNTY, Ohio — Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost has disclosed the indictment of a South Webster woman on charges related to sexual battery as a teacher.
Caroline Johnson, 36, was formally indicted by a Scioto County Common Pleas Court grand jury. The grand jury charged her with three counts of sexual battery, each classified as a third-degree felony.
The indictment stems from an investigation conducted by Yost’s Bureau of Criminal Investigation, revealing that Johnson engaged in sexual activity with a minor during her tenure with the Bloom-Vernon Local School District. Johnson held the positions of coach and intervention specialist within the school district.
The case was presented to the grand jury and is currently under prosecution by the Special Prosecution Section of the Attorney General’s Office.
It is essential to note that indictments represent criminal allegations, and individuals accused are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
