Olivia Ortz, a Pennsylvania Chorus Teacher, Was Arrested for Sexual Contact with a Student On Monday, the Pennsylvania choir instructor was arrested for sexual contact with a student after a student came forward with allegations that she had sex with him.
Olivia Ortz, a former teacher at Wilmington Area High School, is being accused of sexual assault, unintentional contact with children, and unlawful use of a communications device. All of these misdemeanours and offences rise to the level of a felony.
She has been released for the time being after posting a bail of $150,000.
Chorus instructor Olivia Ortz from Pennsylvania was arrested for having sexual contact with a student.
The principal of the student’s high school, Wilmington Area, reached out to the New Wilmington Police Department on April 18 to inquire about their participation in the Ortz investigation.
According to a press release issued by the local school system, Olivia Ortz’s husband, who had recently returned from a vacation in Florida, was said to have discovered “evidence that his wife had an improper interaction” with a girl who was 17 years old.
People have been told by Police Chief Carmen Piccirillo that the letter that was allegedly sent to Ortz from the school was located on an iPad belonging to Ortz’s husband.
According to Piccirillo, both the pupils and the teacher at the school have collaborated on theatrical productions in the past. “It is abundantly clear that she felt repulsed. Due to the fact that she is an adult in the sense that she understands the credibility of her job, she was aware that he was underage.
However, the detectives believe that she eventually admitted to having sex with the instructor, despite the fact that she initially denied having sexual contact with him.
Chorus instructor Olivia Ortz from Pennsylvania was arrested for having sexual contact with a student.
In the beginning, Olivia Ortz is referred to as a “Adult” who can be trusted and has an impressive professional history, as stated in a news announcement issued by the institution. Nevertheless, this virtuous bond between instructor and pupil quickly develops into a romantic one.
It has been asserted that a student was invited to Ortz’s residence in Sharon on April 7, even though Ortz’s husband was away on vacation at the time. The student allegedly told the authorities that he spent the night at the apartment and “engaged in sexual conduct.” This is according to the press statement that was released.
Student further asserted that she messaged Ortz after her husband found out about the alleged sexual contact between the two of them.
On May 5th, her cell phone and iPad were taken into custody by police after they raided the Ortz home.
Ortz turned himself up to the authorities first thing on Monday morning. A preliminary hearing will take place on the 25th of May, since that day has been scheduled.
Because of the ongoing judicial process, it was impossible to get in touch with Ortz’s attorney to discuss the matter.
