A Lexington woman pleads not guilty to having sex with a minor.

You could call it a story of trust, as police look into allegations that a neighbor may have taken advantage of a trusting kid, and in the process allegedly broke the law.

35-year-old Pamela Charles is accused of having sex with a 14-year-old boy. Police say the alleged victim is a neighbor of Charles, living near her Russell Cave home.

Tuesday, Charles appeared in court where she pleaded not guilty. For now, Charles is suspended from her job as a teacher's aide with pay pending the outcome of this case.

Charles is a teacher's aide at Bryan Station High School. The alleged victim is a student at Bryan Station Middle.

Fayette superintendent Stu Silberman says all the alleged activity happened off school grounds.

Charles is to return to court on April 14th. She remains free on bond. She's been employed by the school since 1998.

Silberman told 27 NEWSFIRST some teachers at Bryan Station High saw some suspicious activity between the two and contacted school officials, who called police.

"This situation was discovered by our teachers. They took immediate action to report that to our administrators. They found some text messaging that looked inappropriate."

This makes the fifth teacher this school year accused of inappropriate behavior with a student.

Two employees have been cleared. One case is still under investigation, and two others, including Charles' case, are working their way through the court system.
