Local news reporters tried to get a statement from Garcia, as she was released from the Harris County
According to investigators, the girl-on-girl sexual encounters between Garcia and the 16-year-old girl were very graphic.
The mother of the victim said that Garcia wanted to “mentor” her daughter.
The sexual relationship came to light, after the girl’s father caught the two at a public park.
“He was outraged and disappointed and called 911,” she explained.
Police said her daughter was not even in Garcia’s classroom at Hastings High School. According to documents, the two met through a mutual friend and began to get close.
Investigators allege Garcia would stay with the 16-year-old after school while the teenager was working on a classroom project.
The relationship reportedly began to spark after a meeting at Starbucks on March 21st. That is when, according to court documents, Garcia told the teen she had a romantic dream about her.
The 16-year-old’s mother believes her daughter was taken advantage of and still doesn’t know it.
“She just barely turned 16. At that age, you don’t know what you’re doing, what you’re getting yourself into,” added the mother.
Police say Garcia took the girl to her apartment on numerous occasions.
Most of the details in documents are too graphic to release, according to prosecutors. However, there is one incident that has been leaked.
“The allegation is that they did, in fact, drive to a store and purchase a sex toy and drove back to the defendant’s apartment where they engaged in sex,” said prosecutor Markay Stroud.
Garcia is charged with indecency with a child and sexual assault of a child. She has been ordered to stay away from the 16-year-old girl.
