CRISFIELD, Md.- A woman who worked as a school nurse at Crisfield High School & Academy has been arrested and charged with sexual offenses involving four high school students, Maryland State Police said Wednesday.
Samantha Marsh, 33, of Crisfield, is charged with 10 counts of fourth-degree sex offense, four counts of perverted practice, four counts of contributing to the condition of a child and one count of attempted fourth-degree sex offense.
Marsh was arrested on Tuesday at the Maryland State Police Princess Anne Barrack and is being held without bail at the Somerset County Detention Center.
Investigators said Marsh was working as the school nurse at Crisfield High School & Academy in Crisfield at the time of the alleged incidents. She had been placed on administrative leave prior to her arrest, police said.
An investigation into Marsh was initiated Monday by the Maryland State Police Criminal Enforcement Division, Lower Shore Region. Police said that according to a preliminary investigation, the alleged offenses occurred between March 2018 and January 2019.
Investigators said the victims are all believed to be students at Crisfield High School & Academy, although none of the alleged activity took place on school grounds. According to court documents, all four students stated that Marsh performed sexual acts with them in the back of her van at other locations in Crisfield.
Police said Marsh has since confessed to performing oral sex on three of the students.
Anyone with additional information about this case is asked to contact the Maryland State Police Princess Anne Barrack at 443-260-3700.
