Former Elkins Middle School Teacher Re-Indicted
{Elkins, West Virginia}...Former Elkins Middle School teacher 29 year old Autumn Rae Faulkner of Beverly has been re-indicted after charges that she sexually abused a student have been dismissed twice. Faulkner is charged with three counts of third-degree sexual assault and three counts of sexual abuse by a custodian or person in a position of trust involving a male student who was 15 at the time. Circuit Judge Jaymie Godwin Wilfong dismissed charges against Faulkner last summer because prosecutors failed to provide evidence to the defense, and Wilfong had dismissed the case about six months earlier after determining a member of the grand jury had prior knowledge of the allegations.
