A teacher could be deported after being accused of sexually abusing a minor student. Rumah Byrapaka, 24, was arrested in Georgia for the alleged sexual abuse of a 13-year-old student. The Hephzibah Middle School teacher sent nude photos of her and erotic messages to the minor, according to authorities. She is also accused of kissing and "indecent touching" of the student. A spokeswoman for the Richmond County School District said the school would collaborate with police to clarify what happened.
