A private school

teacher from a school in north Fayette County has been arrested for soliciting

sex from a student at the school.

And an administrator

from the school, Solid Rock Academy, has been charged with failing to

report a suspected case of child abuse, as required by Georgia law.

According to

warrants for his arrest, Dwayne Booth, 34, of College Park, attempted

to have a student under 16 commit the act of sodomy in his classroom at

Solid Rock Academy.

Booth is charged

with two felonies: enticing a child for indecent purposes and solicitation

of sodomy. The investigation began when the parents of the victim shared

their suspicions with investigators.

A woman who

said she was the school's top administrator told The Citizen she could

not comment on the incident. She refused to give her name and ended the

conversation by hanging up on the reporter.

There are indications

that other victims may be involved and the investigation is continuing,

according to officials at the Sheriff's Department.

The administrator,

Judith Warnell Lyon, 50, was arrested on a misdemeanor charge of failure

to report suspected child abuse.

School officials

are bound by Georgia law to report any suspicions of child abuse to law

enforcement authorities.

The cases are

being investigated by the Fayette County Sheriff's Department and the

Georgia Bureau of Investigation.

The school

is on Ga. Highway 138 at Commerce Drive in north Fayette County.
