A HIGH school volleyball coach allegedly sent nude pictures to a student and lured him to her home to have sex with another school employee.
Joyce Churchwell and a former female employee at Berryhill High School connected with the teen on Snapchat when he was just 18 years old, according to a probable cause affidavit obtained by the Tulsa World.
Although the messages exchanged were initially benign, they eventually turned provocative, the student told cops.
The 40-year-old allegedly sent the teen nude photos and videos of herself.
Churchwell told the boy on Snapchat in mid-2019 that she and the other woman were at her home and that her husband was away, court docs allege.
The teen then showed up at Churchwell's home in Oklahoma, where the three of them had sex, he told police.
He's since graduated from Berryhill High School, authorities said.
Faculty caught wind of rumors about Churchwell and the former school employee engaging "in a threesome sexual act with another student," according to the affidavit.
Once school staff caught wind of the rumors, they immediately alerted the Tulsa County sheriff's office in December.
Churchwell is on a leave of absence from the school, Berryhill Public Schools said in a statement to Tulsa World.
"Berryhill School District takes the safety of its students very seriously and does everything it can to provide a safe learning environment," district officials said.
School officials told the news outlet that they reported the accusations to the authorities and are cooperating with law enforcement.
The district said it wouldn't comment further on the allegations because of the ongoing criminal investigation.
