There are new charges against a Bay area teacher who is accused of having sexual contact with a student.

Greco Middle School teacher Debra Lafave turned herself in to investigators in Marion County Monday to face more charges surrounding the same teen.

Investigators first arrested Lafave, 23, last week in Hillsborough County. They accused her of having sexual relations with a 14-year-old boy. She posted a $5,000 bond last Tuesday.

After hearing from the teen's 15-year-old cousin, Marion County investigators filed their own charges: two counts of lewd and lascivious battery and one count of lewd and lascivious exhibition.

Detectives say the cousin reported Lafave drove to Ocala twice to meet the 14-year-old teen and had sexual contact with him there as well.

Lafave is being held on a $25,000 bond.
