MOUNTAIN TOP, Pa. — A teacher from Luzerne County has been charged with indecent assault, corruption of minors, and related charges.
During an investigation at Crestwood High School last year, authorities learned that Theron Roberts, 38, of Slocum Township, near Wapwallopen, touched a young girl inappropriately.
The girl told investigators that Roberts touched her on several occasions when she was between the ages of 14 and 15.
Roberts allegedly told the girl that if "she told anyone what he did, that he'll make her pay, that she would regret it."
