A former Indiana substitute teacher accused of sexually abusing students is now facing additional charges after another alleged victim has come forward.

Brittany Fortinberry is now facing 47 charges—including sexual misconduct with a minor, dissemination of material harmful to minors and contributing to the delinquency of a minor—after a teen boy alleged that Fortinberry gave him drugs and had sex with him in her garage, according to WTHR.

What are the allegations against Brittany Fortinberry? 

The teen’s account is just the latest in a string of disturbing allegations against Fortinberry, who has been accused of having sex with boys as young 13.

In March, five teenage boys came forward to report the Indiana mom of sexual abuse.

According to court documents obtained by Fox 59, one teen told authorities that Fortinberry forced a group of underage teens to have sex with her at her home while making one of the victims wear a Ghostface mask from the horror movie Scream. She allegedly threatened to kill herself if any of them reported the incidents to police or their parents.

Another teen told authorities that Fortinberry sent him expensive gifts and Snapchat videos of her engaging in sexual activities with other men. He accused the former substitute teacher of giving him drugs and alleged that she once forced him to “drink a bottle” that tasted like alcohol and made him forget what happened, authorities said. He also told investigators that Fortinberry allegedly forced some of the teens to watch her having sex with other minors.

According to the court records, Fortinberry also paid the teens anywhere from $100 to $800 for photos of their genitals.

What are the new allegations against Brittany Fortinberry?

In September, new charges were filed against the 31-year-old after another teen came forward with his own account of sexual abuse. 

He told authorities that Fortinberry invited him to her house, where he would do drugs and she’d compliment his body as he did chores, WTHR reported. 

The abuse escalated when Fortinberry had sex with him in her garage, the records alleged. That night, Fortinberry went to bed with her husband, while he slept in her children’s room, authorities said.

The teen, who also reported receiving expensive gifts from her, told police that he stopped going to her house when he realized that she was having sex with other teenage boys.

In a separate case, she has also been accused of sending sexually explicit messages to teen boys who worked as her teaching assistants at Eminence Schools.

Several of the charges against Fortinberry are considered Level 1 felonies in the state of Indiana and could carry a sentence of up to 40 years in prison if convicted, Fox 59 reported.

Fortinberry’s husband has filed for divorce, according to People, and is seeking custody of their 4-year-old child.
