A former teacher’s aide in Florida has been arrested and charged with having a sexual relationship with a 14-year-old special needs student, it was reported on Tuesday.
Alana Chasky, 35, was arrested on Monday by authorities in Brevard County, Florida.
She allegedly engaged in numerous sexual encounters with the boy at her home.
She faces charges of lewd and lascivious battery on a victim between 12 and 16 years old.
She was also charged with distributing obscene material to a minor.
Chasky was employed by Riverdale Country School in Palm Bay.
Police say that the mother of a 14-year-old boy with behavioral problems noticed explicit text messages and images from Chasky on her son’s cell phone.
The mother knew Chasky because she was assigned to help her son with his emotional needs, according to News 6.

Police say that the mother warned Chasky to stay away from her son back in May because she suspected that their relationship was inappropriate.
But Chasky is alleged to have ignored the mother’s warnings and continued to pick up and drop off the boy between home and school.
‘She was a student’s aide and she met this particular victim on the bus,’ Palm Bay Police Lt. Mike Bandish told Fox 35 TV.
‘She rode the bus back and forth… and that’s where they met.’
Authorities say the mother initially gave the woman permission to have her son visit her because she was ‘assisting with his behavioral problems.’
In July, police said they spoke to the boy, who had violated his home detention by walking to Chasky’s home.
The boy told police that he had exposed himself to Chasky and that the two had cuddled.

Earlier this month, the boy admitted to police that he and Chasky had sex multiple times at her home
When confronted by authorities, Chasky denied any wrongdoing. The lack of evidence forced police refrain from pressing charges, though they warned Chasky not to make contact with the boy.
On September 10, the boy was arrested for allegedly taking part in a burglary of Chasky’s house. Chasky was out of town at the time of the alleged burglary.
When police investigated, the mother showed authorities the explicit text messages.
Police said the text messages were from a phone number that matched Chasky’s.
Earlier this month, the boy admitted to police that he and Chasky had sex multiple times at her home.
The two allegedly had numerous encounters between February and September.
