Add The New York Post on Google The Kentucky middle school teacher who was the first to be charged under a new grooming law is a married new mom, it has emerged.
Graves County Middle School teacher Sadie Flores, 25, was busted Friday and charged with grooming a minor – four years after marrying her husband, David, a machine operator, and a year after giving birth to their first child, a daughter.
“We are so grateful God chose us to be parents to this sweet baby,” Flores gushed on Facebook in July 2024, announcing her pregnancy.

Flores shared snaps of her daughter posing in front of church signs, just weeks before she was arrested at her workplace following a complaint from the accuser’s parents.
She “attempted to manipulate the minor and expressed feelings of love and admiration more so than just a student-teacher relationship,” Graves County Sheriffs said in a citation seen by WPSD.
Police have not revealed her alleged victim’s age, but the Mail reported school board officials were contacted by a parent of a 14-year-old.

The educator and the student also “met in secret before a school function, outside of school, that [she] was not directly a part of,” according to Graves County Sheriffs Office.
They also allegedly had late-night FaceTime calls that “the parents were not aware of,” according to police.
It’s not clear how long Flores and the child were allegedly messaging before she was busted.
Flores has been charged with grooming a minor under a law that took effect on July 15. The law allows cops to charge predators before sexual assault happens. Teachers must also take part in sessions focused on preventing grooming.
It’s not clear when she will appear in court, and it’s not clear if she’s entered a plea.
