    An Armada Middle School teacher who abruptly resigned last week is under police investigation for “inappropriate relations” with a female student, Superintendent Michael Musary confirmed Wednesday. Musary declined to divulge specifics of the allegation and who made it, but said the assertion occurred May 13 – the same day the teacher last worked in the classroom.

    Hearing set for former Armada teacher facing sexual misconduct charges

    A jailed ex-teacher in the Armada school district will get his first opportunity to confront his accuser on July 8. That’s the date selected Wednesday by attorneys on both sides of Robert Yaek’s case for a probable-cause hearing to determine whether he should stand trial on criminal sexual conduct and other charges stemming from his relationship with a seventh-grader at Armada Middle School where he taught.

    Yaek, 26, of Richmond Township, is accused of engaging in sex acts with the 13-year-old girl inside a school closet and at a home that he was house-sitting. He is charged with three counts of first-degree criminal sexual conduct, which involves sexual penetration and is punishable by up to life in prison. He also faces two counts of using a computer to commit a crime and one count of possession of child sexually abusive material – both 4-year felonies. Yaek also is charged with distributing sexually explicit material to children, a 2-year offense.

    Armada teacher accused of sex with student hears victim testimony

    [Robert] Yaek sat just a few feet away from his accuser as his former student described their relationship in court. But it may have been the 13-year-old’s testimony that prompted an amendment from the prosecution’s original accusations ... But before the 13-year-old girl took the stand, the judge requested those who were not involved in the case to leave the courtroom. When testimony concluded, prosecutors requested a pair of amendments to their charges, after the girl testified she and Yaek did not have sexual intercourse.

    ...

    Prosecutors argued despite the inconsistencies, some form of sexual activity between teacher and student took place, adding they’ve got the emails and pictures to piece together probable cause. The judge agreed, as the case now goes to trial.

    [Robert] Yaek surrendered to police on June 6 and was charged on seven counts, including three felony criminal sexual conduct charges.

The first degree charges remain in place but were amended to oral sexual contact between Yaek and his accuser.

    He also is charged with two counts of using a computer to commit a crime, a 4-year felony; one count of possession of child sexually abusive material, also punishable by up to four years in prison; and distributing sexually explicit material to children, a 2-year offense.

    Armada teacher gets 10 years for sex with seventh-grader

    A former Armada Middle School teacher who engaged in sex acts with a 13-year-old seventh grader was ordered Tuesday to spend 10 to 50 years in prison. Judge Mary Chrzanowski sentenced Robert Yaek, 26, to a harsher term than the approximately seven-year minimum under the sentencing guidelines that was recommended by probation after hearing the impact the incident has had on the victim. The top of the range was about 13 years.

    Yaek in December pleaded no contest to two counts each of first-degree criminal sexual conduct and using a computer to commit a crime, as well as single counts of distributing obscene material to a minor and possession of child sexually abusive material.
