Hampton, Va. - A former teacher accused of sexting to an 11-year-old boy is scheduled to appear today in a Hampton courtroom.

Police started investigating 31-year-old Kimberlee Dietz in March.

An 11-year-old boy told his parents she expressed interest in him, even showing them texts on his cell phone.

According to a search warrant, a detective used the boy's phone to continue the conversation.

That's when police say Dietz sent sexually explicit photos of herself.
