After state police believe she sexually molested a pupil, a former Trigg County High School teacher was arrested. In January, Kentucky State Police Post 1 began investigating complaints against the instructor, Ashley M. Wells, 34. In 2016, Wells is accused of sexually abusing a 17-year-old Christian County pupil. Wells was charged with first-degree sexual abuse by a grand jury on April 29, and she was detained on Wednesday. She was arrested and taken to the Christian County Jail.
