A preliminary hearing in the case of a former Eupora High School employee charged with statutory rape has again been continued.
Former EHS assistant teacher Kayla Tindall was to have a preliminary hearing in Webster County Justice Court last Friday. However, the hearing was continued because a Mississippi Bureau of Investigation agent who was to testify had a conflict.
The hearing is now set for Friday, March 13, at approximately 2 p.m., according to court officials. This was the second continuance in the case.
Tindall, who either resigned or was fired Jan. 30, is accused of the statutory rape of a 13-year-old boy last fall. She is free on bond.
