Anamaria Milazzo (Chemung County Sheriff’s Office).
A former education worker in upstate New York was charged with a felony earlier this month after she was allegedly caught sending naked selfies to a 14-year-old boy over a three month period, cops say.
Anamaria Milazzo, 22, of Elmira, is facing a felony charge of disseminating indecent material to minors in the second degree and a misdemeanor charge of endangering the welfare of a child after she was busted messaging with the boy and reported to authorities on June 9, the Chemung County Sheriff’s Office reports.
“AÂ School Resource Officer assigned to the Greater Southern Tier BOCES [Boards of Cooperative Educational Services] received a complaint alleging Milazzo sent indecent material,” CCSO officials said in a press release this week.
“The Criminal Division learned that over a three-month period, Milazzo had sent nude photographs of herself to a 14-year-old male,” the release alleged.
According to the local NBC affiliate WETM, Milazzo is a former BOCES employee who used to work at a BOCES facility in Chemung County, which is located in the western part of the Empire State near the Pennsylvania border. She was reportedly fired, but BOCES officials have declined to say when she worked or what she did there.
The New York State legislature created Boards of Cooperative Educational Services (BOCES) in 1948 to provide “shared educational programs and services” to school districts within the state, its website says.
BOCES officials in the Greater Southern Tier region did not immediately respond to Law&Crime’s requests for comment Thursday.
While Milazzo was charged with a felony, cops said she was not taken into custody after being caught and reported by BOCES. The former education worker was given a ticket to appear in Wellsburg Village Court, instead, at a later date, according to police.
