Tampa, FL – A substitute teacher in Hillsborough County has been arrested after authorities allege she showed sexual content to students at a Riverview school.
According to the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office, detectives received a tip on August 25 that Tanaya Jordan, 26, a substitute teacher at Pepin Academy in Riverview, had shown explicit content to two juvenile victims while at the school.
Detectives obtained a search warrant for Jordan’s cell phone, where they reportedly confirmed that the material shown to the victims was present on the device. Sheriff Chad Chronister issued a statement calling the alleged actions a betrayal of trust, adding that Jordan will be held accountable.
On September 4, Jordan was arrested and is now facing multiple charges, including six counts of selling or distributing obscene material to a minor and two counts of unlawful use of a two-way communications device.
The case remains under active investigation. Officials said any further updates will come from the Sheriff’s Office Public Affairs team.
