The 32-year-old Brooks was arrested on Tuesday night by the Simi Valley Police Department. Brooks had previously been a sixth-grade teacher at Garden Grove Elementary School since 2004, and she faces one charge of a lewd act upon a child, one count of oral copulation of a person under 14, and three counts of genital penetration by a foreign object with a person under 14 years of afge when the suspect is more than 10 years older than the victim.
Her bail was set at $2 million to begin with, and she pleaded not guilty on Wednesday morning. Garden Grove has grades from kindergarten through sixth, and police would not say if the victim was in Brooks' classes. It was confirmed though, that he was a student at Garden Grove.
The alleged relationship between Brooks and the student went on for several months. Garden Grove was alerted to the relationship on Feb. 22, 2013, but they did not say how that information came to pass.
