Original Post
(Toppenish, WA) -- She was a high school teacher in Toppenish, now she's accused having sex with at least one student, and supplying the booze to a lot more of those students. Yakima County authorties are looking for 40-year-old Bertha Adriana Cerna. Court documents say one student who visited their home told police Cerna offered her liquor and marijuana when she would visit Cernas home, going so far as to have drank hard seltzers several times over.
Student visits to Cerna's Home Became Inappropriate
During those times, the witness says Cerna would tell of her sexual relations with male students, and even show explicit photos. If you know where she is or have any information on the case, call Yakima Crimestoppers at (800) 222-TIPS (8477)
