The band director at a Florida high school was arrested earlier this week for allegedly having sex with two students in his office.
According to the Orlando Sentinel, 25-year-old Steven Velez was arrested on Tuesday. Velez resigned from his post at Poinciana High School last week after police in Osceola County began investigating a 17-year-old girl's claims that he had a sexual relationship with her last year:
He was sending her texts, which led her to going over to his house, Lizasuain said. Velez and thestudent allegedly engaged in sexual acts, Lizasuain said.
The student told deputies there was another student, also 17, who may have had a similar relationship with Velez, Lizasuain said. That student's parents said they believed the allegations were true.
The student told police that she decided to come forward after hearing that Velez had sex with another student. Velez faces charges for committing unlawful sexual acts with minors.
