HILLSBOROUGH (WTVD) -- A former Orange County Schools employee is facing multiple charges after an investigation into allegations involving students.

According to the Orange County Sheriff's Office, 37-year-old Lesli Bryant turned herself in Thursday after investigators obtained warrants charging her with two counts of indecent liberties with a student and one count of sexual exploitation of a minor.

The investigation began after school administrators alerted a school resource officer about allegations of misconduct involving Bryant and multiple students. Deputies then launched an investigation.

Officials said Bryant resigned from her position with Orange County Schools on June 12.

Bryant, who lives in Hillsborough, is being held in the Orange County Detention Center without bond.

The investigation remains ongoing.

Anyone with additional information is asked to contact Investigator C. Tapp at the Orange County Sheriff's Office at (919) 245-2964.
