San Bernardino – On Mon., Dec. 15, charges were dropped against the Indian Springs High School teacher, who last September was accused of having an inappropriate sexual relationship with two students.

Citing insufficient evidence, prosecutors have dropped all charges against Amy Corinne Bramlett, 46, of Highland, without prejudice (meaning charges could be re-filed should new evidence come to light).  A San Bernardino County District Attorney’s Office spokesman is reported as stating that based on their investigation, they were unable to move forward with the case.

Bramlett was initially charged with oral copulation of a child under age 18, and penetration with a foreign object.  However, there are reports that the two boys, who accused the teacher of abuse, recanted their story this past November.  There are also alleged reports that one of the boys was in the midst of a burglary at the teacher’s home, and used the abuse fabrication to shield his own crimes during interrogation.  CBSLA.com previously reported Bramlett’s attorney as saying that the first alleged victim “…was facing first-degree burglary charges when these allegations came up, so he clearly had motivation to be dishonest.”

Bramlett, who was free on $100,000 bail, has been on administrative leave from her job as a Program Specialist.  She will be working with the San Bernardino City Unified School District on what steps are needed to return to her job.

At this time, there is no word on whether charges will be brought against Bramlett’s accusers.
