Police have charged a Stafford County high school teacher with having an online relationship with a child in another state.

Fredericksburg police charged Marcus Salley, 33, with two counts of indecent liberties with a child and one count of solicitation to possess child pornography. He is being held at Rappahannock Regional Jail without bond.

The Stafford County Sheriff’s Office was tipped off in early September that a high school teacher, later identified as Salley, had a relationship with a minor.

During the investigation, the sheriff’s office said Salley was having an online relationship with a juvenile in another state through an instant messaging app.

The case was turned over to the Fredericksburg Police Department after the investigation found Salley’s actions took place in Fredericksburg.
