Temecula Teacher, 36, Accused Of Sex With Student
TEMECULA
Police say a married 36-year-old male Temecula Valley High School teacher had an on-going sexual relationship with one of his 16-year-old female students.
Jeremy Todd Buchholz, also a father of two and a former football coach turned math teacher, is free on $25,000 bail.
He is charged with unlawful intercourse with a minor, sexual penetration with a foreign object and oral copulation with a child under 18 years old, all felonies.
School officials were told in September that Buchholz and the teen were in a relationship, said Temecula police Detective Darin Gray.
"The school got a report and then they contacted me," Gray said.
An investigation determined that the teacher and the student, who is now 17, had allegedly been involved for about six months, dating back to last spring, Gray said.
Buchholz was charged by the District Attorney's Office last Friday, but not arrested until yesterday because police did not find out about the charges until they looked it up on the Internet, Gray said.
Buchholz was picked up at his French Valley home about 5 p.m. Thursday and booked into the Southwest Detention Center.
