A meeting with a 17-year-old boy allegedly took place in November but wasn’t reported until this year. The Lafayette County superintendent passed the claim to the sheriff’s office.

The Oxford Eagle reports a circuit judge delayed Wray’s arraignment at the request of defense attorney Tony Farese.

Wray was charged in June and released on $10,000 bail. She waived a probable cause hearing, which is required before a teacher can be charged criminally.
