A now-fired upstate New York school employee has been charged with a felony for allegedly sending nudes to a 14-year-old boy.
Anamaria Milazzo, a 22-year-old employee of the Greater Southern Tier Board of Cooperative Educational Services [BOCES], was arrested Monday, a week after a school resources officer was tipped off that she was sending lewd photos to a minor, according to the Chemung County Sheriff’s Office.
Milazzo, from Elmira, had been sending the photos to a 14-year-old boy over three months, cops alleged.
She was charged with second-degree disseminating indecent material to minors in the second degree, a felony, and endangering the welfare of a child, a misdemeanor.
Despite being charged with a felony, Milazzo was issued a ticket and will appear in the Wellsburg Village Court at a later date, cops said.
GST BOCES confirmed Milazzo was an employee at a BOCES facility in Chemung County — but would not say when she worked at the school or what her role was, WETM reported.
She has been fired, the officials said.
The 14-year-old boy was not identified and it’s not clear if he was a student at the same BOCES school where Milazzo worked.
