Teacher, 29, 'had sex with a 16-year-old female student she had been mentoring'

Teacher creeper: Former Houston high school teacher Kelly Ann Garcia is being charged with indecency with a child and sexual assault of a child, after allegedly sleeping with a female student

A 29-year-old teacher has been arrested after allegedly having sex with a 16-year-old female student she had been mentoring.



Kelly Ann Garcia is alleged to have begun the affair after telling the teen she had an erotic dream about her.



Court documents show that the English teacher and the teen had sex at her home, including one occasion when they bought a sex toy.



On another occasion the teen's father caught the two at a local park, but Garcia sped off in her car before she could be confronted.



The victim's mother accused Garcia of taking advantage of her daughter.



'She just barely turned 16. At that age, you don’t know what you’re doing, what you’re getting yourself into,' she told Houston TV station KHOU .



The victim was a 16-year-old student at Hastings High School in Houston, Texas, when she met Garcia through a mutual friend.



The student told investigators Garcia would stay with her after school numerous times while she was working on a classroom project, even though she was not her teacher.



Court document show that Garcia picked up the teen on March 21 and the two went to Starbucks to have coffee.



It was there that Garcia allegedly told the teen that she had a romantic dream about her.



A week later, Garcia texted the teen saying she had just broken up with her boyfriend and they expressed their feelings for one another.



The following day Garcia and the teen met and spent the evening "kissing passionately."



The next day Garcia allegedly picked up the teen and took her back to her place after stopping off at the Katz Boutique and Sex Shop where she purchased a sex toy with her credit card.



Inappropriate affair: Prosecutor Markay Stroud says Garcia purchased a sex toy with the student before returning to her apartment to engage in sex

'The allegation is that they did in fact drive to a store and purchase a sex toy and drive back to the defendant’s apartment where they engaged in sex,' said prosecutor Markay Stroud.



Over the next several days, Garcia and the teen allegedly had more sexual encounters.



The relationship came to light after the teen bragged about her sexual encounters with other students.



One of them reported what they heard to an administrator.



Garcia is alleged to have continued to see the teen while she was under investigation.

The teen’s father caught the two at the park together on May 21, but Garcia sped off when he tried to confront her.



'I know it’s very hard on the complainant’s family. It’s very hard on my client’s family,' said Sam Dick, Garcia’s attorney. 'This is something nobody expected.'



Investigators recovered the receipt from Katz Boutique, confirming the purchase of the sex toy.



They also obtained phone and text records showing communication between the teacher and teen. They also found a photo of the two kissing.
