The former Texas high school teacher was re-arrested in connection with accusations of sexually assaulting a child after new evidence was revealed.
Molly Colleen Spears, 35, was accused of sexually abusing a student between 2022 and 2023. He was taught at Barber Hill High School in Mont Belleviu, about 35 miles east of Houston, and resigned in the summer of 2023.
The former teacher said he “sought contacts through text messages and contacts through commercial online services to meet students.”
February 8, 2024 – About a year ago – The Chambers County large ju judge reportedly indicted the spear for being in charge of inappropriate relationships with a student.
Despite the arrest warrant issued four days later, Spears was not arrested in connection with the charges until earlier this month – February 11, 2025.
Quote her lawyer, KPRC-TV Spears reported that she was arrested “satisfied” on February 11th when she surrendered to police. Spears was transferred to the Chambers County Jail and was released shortly after posting $50,000 in bonds.
After his initial arrest on February 11, Spears' defense attorney Christopher L. Trichko said that his client “was first notified of the charge two days ago, and immediately set up the bond and acted in place, unable to tell him why it is resting for so long.
However, Spears was re-arrested Thursday after new revelation related to the alleged crime came to light.
Spears was charged with two counts of sexual assault on a child. Police said her bonds were set at $200,000.
The Mont Belleviu Police Station statement“In February 2025, the Chambers County District Attorney's Office requested investigative assistance from the Montbelleviu Police Department's Office of Criminal Investigation (CID) for new evidence of new evidence of possible sexual assault in child cases that occurred in 2022 and 2022.”
Citing court records, the KPRC reported that Spears has been accused of “engaging in sexual contact and sexual intercourse with male students during his time as a teacher at Barbers Hill High School.”
The former teacher said he “sought contacts through text messages and contacts through commercial online services to meet students.”
The new accusations reportedly relate to “a previously investigated case of inappropriate relationships between educators and students conducted by the Barbers Hill ISD Police Department in 2023.”
“Due to the sensitive and aggressive nature of this investigation and the age of the victims, no further information is released at this time,” the Mont Bellevue Police Station said.
