Logan Co. Teacher Faces Solicitation Charge

A fourth-grade Logan County teacher who is accused of selling sex online appeared in court on Thursday morning.

Amber Carter, 35, who is a teacher with Bellefontaine City Schools, was arrested on Tuesday.

According to investigators, Carter used the Craigslist Web site to catch her, and undercover officers met Carter at a Bellefontaine motel. They said she skipped class to make the meeting.

On Thursday, Carter asked the judge for a delay. She will face a solicitation charge next week.

Bellefontaine City Schools Superintendent Larry Anderson said school officials are shocked. He said Carter has worked for the district for 13 years and has never received a reprimand.

She has been placed on administrative leave.
