Charges have been dropped against a Rushville woman who had been accused of having a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old Atchison, Kan. student in 2012 while she was a high school teacher.

Shelley Aversman, 35 was due in court Wednesday morning for a preliminary hearing on a charge of unlawful sexual relations with a student.

However, according to the Atchison County Prosecutor’s Office the student recanted his statement and said the relationship did not happen when he was in high school but rather when he was in college.
