Area Teacher Faces Charges


PASADENA, Texas — A substitute teacher in the Houston area has been fired as he faces charges of sexually assaulting a 14-year-old female student.

Reynaldo Martinez was in the Harris County Jail on Thursday with bail set at $150,000.

The 30-year-old from La Porte was booked Wednesday on two counts of having an improper relationship with a student, two counts of sexual assault of a child between the ages of 14 and 17 and one count of possession of child pornography.

Martinez was fired March 26 by the Pasadena Independent School District, after a criminal complaint alleges that hours earlier he had sexually assaulted the girl in a classroom.

The student at Bondy Intermediate School initially reported she had exchanged sexual text messages with him earlier last week.
Electronic jail records did not list an attorney for Martinez.
