Brittany Fortinberry now facing nearly 50 charges as new accuser comes forward

A disgraced Indiana teacher accused of forcing teenagers as young as 13 to wear “Scream” masks while having group sex with her now faces nearly 50 criminal charges after another accuser came forward.

Brittany Fortinberry, 32, was hit with six additional counts of sexual misconduct with a minor, dissemination of material harmful to minors and contributing to the delinquency of a minor, according to court documents obtained by WTHR.

The accuser came forward in early September — long after the teacher had been arrested and accused by others — saying he was previously too scared to speak out, newly released documents revealed.

He claimed Fortinberry would invite him to her house to hang out and do drugs, and that she would compliment his appearance and strength while he did chores for her.

Eventually, Fortinberry started touching him more, culminating in them allegedly having sex in her garage, according to the docs. It was not clear how old the boy was at the time.

That same night, the boy claimed he slept in Fortinberry’s kids’ room, while the teacher went to bed with her husband, according to court documents.

He alleged that Fortinberry plied him with drugs and gifts, but claimed he stopped going to her house after he realized she was having sex with other teens.

Several teenagers in the area knew about Fortinberry allegedly supplying minors with drugs and sexually preying on children, according to the victim.

“She just handed it out to anybody,” he told investigators, according to court documents seen by Fox 59.

The divorced educator now faces a total of 47 charges, including 15 counts of child molestation and 14 counts of sexual misconduct with a minor.

Fortinberry’s life imploded in Aug. 2024 after the grandmother of one of her alleged victims told police the teacher molested the boy when he was 15 years old.

The grandmother also claimed Fortinberry sent the boy nude pictures and gave him drugs, along with graphic messages allegedly threatening to kiill herself if he told anyone about the abuse.

“[The boy] said that it was no different than a 30-year-old man and a 15-year-old girl. [The boy] said it was child molestation and he’s there because he doesn’t want her to molest more kids,” the court documents state.

Further accusers at Eminence High School, some 30 miles southwest of Indianapolis, came forward with lurid claims about the teacher’s alleged actions.

Among the most bizarre is that she forced her alleged victims to wear a “Ghostface” mask from the “Scream” horror franchise during their group sex sessions.

Fortinberry’s 47 charges include multiple Level 1 felonies for child molestation, which carry a potential sentence of up to 40 years in prison.
