Charges: Ex-Teacher's Aide Had Sex With Boy, 16

AMERY, Wis. (WCCO) ― A 39-year-old former teacher's aide is accused of having sex with a 16-year-old high school student and court records show the two said they were engaged.

Prosecutors charged Brenda Baillargeon, of Amery, Wis., with sexual assault, child enticement and violating a restraining order to stay away from the boy.

Court documents indicate Baillargeon and the teenager had sex at least 10 times.  One of those times was at the boy's grandfather's cabin.

Investigators said Baillargeon used her daughter's cell phone to send the teenage boy text messages, to throw everyone off.

Prosecutors said Baillargeon violated several restraining orders.  One time, prosecutors said Baillargeon met the teenager in an alley where they kissed and hugged.

Residents of Amery can't believe Baillargeon would do something like this.

"Naturally surprised, disappointed that anybody would be involved with something like this," said Stephen Schiell, the Amery school district administrator.

"A teacher," an Amery resident said. "They're supposed to be somebody you trust and you go to with problems."

Baillargeon's bail has been reduced to $5,000, but she remains in the Polk County Jail.  Her next court appearance is Nov. 21.
