SPANISH FORK — A special education teacher in the Nebo School District has been accused of sexually abusing a student on two occasions.
Kiersa Marin Fullmer, 26, of Provo, was charged Thursday in 4th District Court with two counts of aggravated sexual abuse of a child, a first-degree felony.
Spanish Fork police received a report on Dec. 1 that Fullmer, who teaches special education at Canyon Elementary, “had inappropriately touched one of her students, an 8-year-old nonverbal male,” according to charging documents.
Two people told police they saw Fullmer pull down the child’s pants and inappropriately touch him on Halloween, the charges state. On another occasion, someone was in the bathroom with the same student and asked for Fullmer’s help, saying the boy was “throwing a fit and grabbing his groin.” The teacher then inappropriately touched the child over his clothing, according to the charges.

A Worcester County man was indicted on a federal charge of possessing child sexual abuse images, according to authorities who noted the man had served time in the past for a similar charge.
The 35-year-old Auburn man, Christoper Rondeau, was indicted by a federal grand jury after his cellphone contained child sexual abuse images, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office.
Rondeau was released from federal custody in August 2019 on a prior charge of receiving child pornography and is a registered Level 2 sex offender in Massachusetts.
In the recent case, authorities said they found messages in the Kik app that showed Rondeau solicited nude pictures from a young girl, records said.
The phone was discovered by investigators while conducting a search of Rondeau’s residence on Nov. 6. The cellphone was hidden under a dresser in his bedroom, according to federal records.
In 2016, Rondeau was sentenced to prison after investigators said they caught him receiving more than 1,700 files of child sexual abuse images. He was ordered to serve 68 months and was placed on supervised release for seven years.
Rondeau will be arraigned at the federal court in Worcester but not specific date has been set.
The case was brought forward as part of Project Safe Childhood, a branch of the Department of Justice. It aims to “combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse,” and was launched in May 2006.
