A teacher from Arkansas has not argued for sexual abuse after being accused of sexual abuse of a 15-year-old boy in her church.
According to Kark, Reagan Danielle Gray entered her plea on Monday at the Little Rock Court for one count of second -degree sexual violence.
ABC7 reported that the teacher introduced a NO match, so that she could not allow or refuse the crime, but the move is treated the same as a guilty plea for conviction.
Gray was accused last year of abuse a 15-year-old boy in the Immanuel Baptist Church in 2020 when she was 23 years old.
Kark reported that while she first abused the boy in 2020, the attack continued in the summer of 2021.
People contacted Little Rock Court, Little Rock Police, Immanuel Baptist Church and Sylvan Hills Middle School for comment, but they did not respond immediately.

Immanuel Baptist Church in Little Rock, Ark.
Earlier in April 2024, people reported that the police had accused Gray of the sexual abuse of a teenager and sent him nudes.
Gray's lawyer, John Ogles, at the time told people that Gray had introduced a non -guilty plea. “We are just going to trust the judicial process,” he said.
While the suspect was a teacher at the Little Rock Christian Academy and a volunteer in the Immanuel Baptist Church Student Ministry, the victim was a member of the student company.
Kark and ABC7 reported that Gray was originally accused of the first and fourth degrees in sexual attack, but public prosecutors later agreed that she would enter a second -degree plea.
She has been sentenced to six years of probation and a fine of $ 1,000. Gray is now also registered on the register of sex offenders, has been ordered to provide a DNA monster and should not have communication with the victim.
People reported earlier that a statement stated that Gray was told to stop contact with the boy after the teenage parents reportedly found SMS messages between the two in 2020.
The texts were then reported to the senior pastor. Gray then told the pastor that the relationship was “not physical” before he was removed from the student company and was ordered to undergo counseling.
However, “she returned to volunteering in the student ministerie shortly after she was removed”, per researchers.
Gray would then have revealed in a counseling session in 2020 that her relationship with the boy was 'sexual', according to the sworn explanation.
“The communication between gray and [the teen] was not stopped after he was confronted with it [the teen’s] Parents and continued with the Snapchat request, “said the sworn statement, in which the authorities claimed that the abuse took place several times in Gray's car or apartment.
The sworn explanation also stated that from her work at Sylvan Hills Middle School, Gray was with administrative leave from February 2024.
According to Kark, pastor Smith resigned in April last year as a pastor at Immanuel Baptist Church after a recoil for how the church dealt with the claim of sexual abuse.
