Ohio teacher arrested after allegedly paying student to kill estranged husband (1)

A substitute teacher in Ohio has been arrested after allegedly paying a student to kill her soon-to-be ex-husband. Stephanie Demetrius, 44, was charged with felony conspiracy after police said she approached a student at The Academy For Urban Scholars High School in Columbus on March 26 and offered him $2,000 to murder her husband.

Sgt. James Fuqua of the Columbus Division of Police stated, "This particular teacher was attempting to groom this young person into committing murder."

According to investigators, Demetrius provided the student with $250 in cash as a down payment for the killing, and they claim to have a recorded phone conversation between the teacher and the student discussing the remainder of the payment. Initially, reports suggested that the student's mother found suspicious information on her son's phone, but law enforcement sources clarified that the student had gone to his mother because he was scared, prompting her to contact authorities.

Further reports revealed that Demetrius allegedly discussed the timing of when her children would be out of the house and noted that her estranged husband works from home. She reportedly dismissed concerns about neighbors hearing the gunfire.

Demetrius has posted a $150,000 bond and is set to appear in court next week for a preliminary hearing. The Academy For Urban Scholars High School declined to comment on the incident.
