Former Indianapolis teacher gets no additional jail time after pleading guilty to child seduction | wltx.com
INDIANAPOLIS — A former Indianapolis kindergarten teacher will not spend additional time in jail after pleading guilty to having a sexual relationship with a student in 2025. Torrie Lemon, 24, pleaded guilty to child seduction, a Level 5 felony, in Hamilton County on Thursday, May 14. Lemon was given a four-year sentence, but she will serve all of the remaining time on probation after previously serving 40 days in jail. The investigation started in April 2025 when a teacher at Colonial Christian School on the north side of Indianapolis reported learning of the sexual relationship between Lemon and a student while on a school trip to South Carolina. Court documents say Lemon said the relationship had been going on for about two months and "was struggling with it." In an interview with the victim, police learned the relationship at some point became sexual, according to court documents. When police went to speak with Lemon, she informed them she moved home to New Hampshire and would not be speaking to police without an attorney. According to court documents, Lemon never gave a statement to police for the investigation. Investigators obtained phone data from the victim, as well as social media data from Lemon's Facebook and Snapchat accounts. Lemon also faces two other felony child seduction charges in Marion County related to the same case, where she is set to be sentenced after a change of plea hearing Friday, May 22.
