A Catholic school teacher from Delaware has been charged with sending sexually explicit photos to a 14-year-old former student, according to police.
Alanis Pinion, a 24-year-old 8th-grade teacher at St. Mary Magdalen School in Wilmington, was arrested Thursday by the New Castle County Police.
Detectives discovered that Pinion frequently communicated with her students over Snapchat — and sent sexually explicit photos to one of them.
Police informed the Catholic Diocese of Wilmington, which runs the school and fully cooperated with the investigation.
Pinion is charged with one felony count of sexual solicitation of a child under 18, one felony count of endangering the welfare of a child and one misdemeanor count of indecent exposure first-degree.
She was arraigned and housed at the Baylor Women’s Correctional Institution after failing to pay $46,000 cash bail.
The Post has reached out to St. Mary Magdalen School for comment.
