Text messages allegedly sent by a 24-year-old Wisconsin teacher to her 11-year-old student have been revealed following her arrest.
Madison Bergmann, 24, has been charged with one count of first-degree child sexual assault with a child under age 13, according to CBS News, after the boy's mother allegedly found messages between the pair.
According to the outlet, police were called to River Crest Elementary School in Hudson, in regards to "inappropriate conduct between a current teacher and a 5th grade student."
Now, disturbing messages allegedly sent by the teacher, have been revealed.
The alleged relationship between the teacher and the 11-year-old boy came to light after his mother found text messages on his phone after overhearing the pair talking on the phone, according to charging documents.
The child told investigators that he and Bergmann had talked "almost daily" since he got her number when the two of them and his mother went skiing together over the winter break.
According to the boy, he and Bergmann would also write notes to each other all day, with officers allegedly finding handwritten noted in a folder with the boy's name on it inside Bergmann's backpack.
Police summarized the interaction between the two, stating: "In her notes, she tells him she loves him, wants to kiss him, he turns her on, and that she is obsessed with him."
According to the documents, Bergmann allegedly wrote in one of the notes: "One of my cousins is in the 5th grade and I can't imagine a man talking to her how we talk. I know we have a special relationship and I do love you more than anyone in the world but I have to be the adult here and stop."
Law & Crime reports that in another exchange, the boy told her: "Haha bro I just want to make out with you," to which Bergmann allegedly replied: "I do too! Like alllll the time."
The child also allegedly told investigators that the two had kissed several times and had spoken about having sex, according to KSTP.
Bergmann appeared in court on Thursday and was released on a $25,000 bond, with Law & Crime reporting that she was also put on leave from her job and barred from the school property, as well as being ordered to have no contact with the child in question or anyone under the age of 18.
She is also reportedly banned from contacting any students, staff, or parents from the school, and must wear a GPS monitor while out on bond, and can't travel more than 100 miles from Hudson, Wisconsin.
Hudson School District sent a message to families, according to KSTP, reading: "Learning about a school staff member and alleged inappropriate conduct that breaches trust is deeply troubling for all of us.
"We understand the gravity of this situation and are committed to providing the necessary support for any child who may be impacted.
"We kindly request the school community to respect the privacy of Hudson students and their families and refrain from spreading rumors or speculation. The School District counseling staff are available to help any child or staff who may be experiencing difficulties with this news."
Bergmann reportedly got engaged in December and had been due to get married in July, however, her fiancé Sam Hickman reportedly called it off as soon as the allegations came to light.
A friend of her fiancé, who wished to remain anonymous, told the New York Post: "It’s been indefinitely postponed, and it probably won’t happen. Sam is really upset and heartbroken.
"He’s embarrassed and p**sed. He didn’t deserve this. Everyone is p**sed."
The insider added that it was a mutual decision to call off the wedding, explaining: "It was more like, 'Well obviously it’s not going to happen this summer.' Pretty much all that there is to say.
"He says it’s f**ked up that she cheated with a little kid. He’s really, really hurt. Not talking too much about it, just like 'this is f**ked up'. He’s still in shock.
"Not only did she cheat on him, but she cheated with a little kid."
A progress hearing has been set for May 30.
