A Paradise Valley High School teacher was arrested and
accused of sexual misconduct with a minor, authorities said.
Phoenix police said the parents of the victim - a 16-year-old male student
whose identity was not released - contacted the school
about a possible sexual relationship between their son and Jennifer Mally,
an English teacher and cheerleading coach, that may have been going on since
October 2006.
School officials notified police and Mally, 26, was arrested at the school's administrative offices and immediately placed on administrative leave.
Mally was booked into the Maricopa County jail in downtown Phoenix on 29 counts of sexual conduct with a minor, police said.
Police are looking into whether or not there are any other victims. If there are other victims, they can call the Phoenix Police Family Investigations Bureau at (602) 534-2121.
