Former Teacher Sentenced To 27 Years In Prison

Last updated on Wednesday, June 29, 2016

(BROWNSTOWN) - A former Seymour Middle School teacher has been sentenced Tuesday to 27 years after pleading guilty to molesting a 12-year-old student.

41-year-old Aaron Murray of Seymour was arrested last July after the victim's father contacted police. The father told investigators his daughter's friend called him and told him of his daughter's relationship with Murray.

According to court documents, Murray admitted to kissing and fondling the girl.

He was the girl's math teacher and tutored her outside of school. Murray's teaching contract with Seymour Community Schools was terminated a week after his arrest.

He had pleaded guilty to three felonies of molesting a child under the age of 14.
