Authorities claim that a teacher at Calcasieu High School touched a pupil indecently while the two were in a tutoring session.
Around 9:30 on Monday morning, Sulphur resident Alan Brent Million, 40, was taken into custody on one count of indecent behavior with minors. On a $25,000 bond, he was freed the same day at about 12:30.
According to a district statement, Million is no longer employed with the Calcasieu Parish School Board. The statement adds that after the school board was informed of the allegations, Million was put on administrative leave.
On Sulphur High’s website, Million was listed as the team’s assistant baseball coach; the listing has since been taken down.
According to his attorney, Million has been a coach and teacher since 2010.
“Brent has an unblemished and exemplary record. Unfortunately, in March of this year a female student chose to make a false accusation against him,” his attorney, Todd Clemons, said in a statement. “Million has never been arrested for any crimes nor has he ever been accused of any inappropriate conduct. Since 2013 he has taught math, while also serving as an assistant football and baseball coach, at Sulphur High School. We look forward to zealously representing Brent and the day that his good name has been fully restored.”.
According to Kayla Vincent, a spokeswoman for the Sheriff’s Office, the Calcasieu Parish Sheriff’s Office got a complaint on March 29 about Million touching a student indecently in October 2021 during an after-school tutoring session. Vincent claimed the victim also admitted to the police that Million had discussed sex with her.
“The one incident is all that we know of at this time, but there is a series of steps many times our sex crime investigators go through, again to corroborate what is told to us by a victim,” enforcement commander with the Calcasieu Parish Sheriff’s Office, Gene Pittman said.
On June 16, Judge Robert Wyatt authorized an arrest.
Pittman claimed that because the majority of the information in these cases comes from victims and it can take some time to collect all the available evidence, investigations in these types of cases can take longer to complete.
“We also realize this is a very serious crime than could and will even impact the perpetrators life, Pittman said. “We want to make sure in all these instances that we gather as much corroborating evidence as we can.”
