The fiancé of a Wisconsin elementary school teacher, Madison Bergmann, is calling their wedding after the alleged accusations.
Bergmann and her devoted friend, Sam Hickman, are cancelling their wedding plans after the teacher has been accused of having an affair with a 5th grader, one of her 11-year-old students.
A friend of the supposedly groom who asked to remain anonymous stated that the wedding plans for the pair have been indefinitely postponed.
The pal of the groom added that after uncovering the revelation of cheating by one of her students, the pair's ceremony will probably not happen.
Wisconsin Elementary School Teacher Arrested for Sexual Assault
A 24-year-old elementary school teacher from Wisconsin was arrested for behaving inappropriately with one of her fifth-grade students just a few months before her wedding.
The situation came to light when the student's mother overheard her son talking to the teacher on the phone. This teacher, Madison Bergmann, allegedly exchanged texts with the boy that were discovered by his parents.
The text messages revealed disturbing details about multiple encounters inside the school during lunch or after classes, where Bergmann is accused of expressing enjoyment at being touched by the child and engaging in inappropriate behavior.
During the investigation, the police found a folder in Bergmann's bag with handwritten notes discussing their physical interactions. In one of these notes, Bergmann acknowledged the inappropriate nature of their relationship but expressed love for the child and stated the need to stop.
The exact duration of the abuse is unclear, but Bergmann admitted to receiving the boy's phone number from his mother in December, the same month she got engaged to her longtime boyfriend. As a result of these allegations, the couple's wedding page on The Knot was taken down.
This news has left many upset, including Sam, who expressed sadness and frustration at the situation, emphasizing that it wasn't deserved by anyone involved.
Teacher's Wedding Called Off
The decision to cancel the wedding, set for July 27, was mutual, according to a close friend. He expressed the depth of hurt and shock felt by the fiancé, who described the situation as messed up and heartbreaking.
The friend shared that the fiancé is still processing the betrayal, especially since it involved a young child, which has added to the emotional distress.
The 24-year-old teacher's arrest came after the victim's parents discovered text messages between her and their child. This discovery led to the father confronting the school with evidence, prompting an investigation into the matter.
The text messages revealed disturbing details of the teacher's inappropriate behavior, including expressing enjoyment at physical interactions with the child. Additionally, handwritten notes found in her possession further indicated the extent of their inappropriate relationship.
Following her arrest, the teacher has been placed on administrative leave and is prohibited from contacting any students, parents, or staff within the district. The Hudson School District informed parents of these actions on the same day as her arrest.
The duration of the abuse is unclear, but the teacher admitted to receiving the child's phone number in December, coinciding with her engagement to Hickman, as shown on her social media profiles.
The teacher faces charges of first-degree child sexual assault and has been released on a $25,000 signature bond pending further legal proceedings.
