(ALBANY, Ore.) - Linn County detectives say an Albany female preschool teacher sent cell phone text messages with sexual content to a 14-year-old boy. Linn County Sheriff Tim Mueller says text messages were discovered by the boy's parents and reported on November 29.

"The woman is a preschool teacher at Central Valley Adventist Academy on Highway 34 near Tangent, the same school where the boy is an eighth grade student."

Mueller says the investigation has revealed that in addition to the text messages, the woman and boy had kissed and had other inappropriate contact both on and off school grounds.

On December 2, 34-year old Jenifer Stitzel, was arrested on two counts of third-degree sex abuse, a class A misdemeanor.

After booking at the Linn County Jail, she was released and scheduled to appear December 23, in Linn County Circuit Court.
