Jessica Langford is accused of having oral sex and intercours­e with a middle school student, according to new court records.

A former Miamisburg teacher indicted on charges of sexual battery and unlawful sexual conduct with a minor is accused of having oral sex and intercours­e with the alleged victim, according to new court records.

Montgomery County Common Pleas Court records state Jessica Langford, 32, of Centervill­e, is accused of performing oral sex on and receiving oral sex from a teenage Miamisburg Middle School student in late May.

Langford is scheduled for a hearing today in Judge Timothy O’Connell’s court.

Langford, who taught at the middle school in Miami Twp., is also accused of having intercours­e with the teen, according to court documents filed last week by the Montgomery County Prosecutor’s Office.

The document was a response to Langford’s request that prosecutor­s name her accuser and provide specific allegation­s she faces.

The prosecutor’s office identifies the alleged victim only by initials.

The document states she twice performed oral sex, twice received

received oral sex, and twice had intercours­e with the teen “on or about May 23.” That date is one day before school district offi- cials said she resigned after being confronted with alle- gations involving inappropri­ate conduct with a student and placed on admin- istrative leave.

Prosecutor Mathias Heck Jr. has said the alleged victim is a 14-year-old student with whom the veteran middle school teacher had “inap- propriate sexual conduct.”

Langford was indicted Nov. 14 on three counts of sexual battery and three counts of unlawful sexual conduct with a minor. On Nov. 21, she pleaded not guilty to all counts, court records show.

She resigned from Miamisburg schools May 24, shortly after being informed of the allegation­s, according to school district records.

Langford was hired as a student teacher in the Miamisburg district in 2006 and served in a similar capacity in Dayton Public Schools, records show.

Miamisburg City Schools records requested by this news outlet in the spring show the woman had a solid tenure in the district. She was hired full time in August 2008, serving nearly nine years at three schoolswhi­le receiving good evaluation­s, records show.
