Johnson was a former intervention specialist in the Bloom-Vernon Local School District, which is located in Scioto County, according to the press release from Yost’s Office.

The former Ohio teacher was originally indicted in December, after the Bureau of Criminal Investigation determined she had engaged in sexual contact with a minor during her time with the school.
