Teacher accused of having sex with six students was blackmailed over OnlyFans account

A 25-year-old high school teacher has been arrested after being accused of having sex with six of her students. According to court documents, Maris Nichols was also blackmailed about students who knew she ran an OnlyFans account.

According to documents obtained by WSB-TV, students who knew about Nichols' OnlyFans account reportedly blackmailed her for better grades.

The teacher has been hit with 11 more allegations

Initially, Nichols was charged with sexually assaulting a student in a classroom closet and a car last month, but she was rearrested two weeks later and received 11 new charges.

The accusations now involve five new alleged victims, and the new charges include child molestation, evidence tampering, and grooming.

The charges against Nichols, who was both a science teacher and the operations manager for the school’s football team, have painted a predatory picture of a teacher who used her authority to coerce a vulnerable person.

Allegedly, Nichols initiated the first encounter in a cramped supply closet on April 23.

Then, the second incident allegedly occurred in May on a Douglasville driveway, where Nichols reportedly met the student inside a car.

Other claims that have come to light following search warrants include evidence that the young biology teacher sent inappropriate images to students.

Reportedly, she even used a sex toy during calls with at least two teens under the age of 16.

Allegedly, the teacher also described her sexual fantasies to the children in great detail, telling them she wanted to be “choked, screamed at, slapped, and whipped”.

According to cops, Nichols allegedly told one teenager to delete the messages they exchanged and lie if quizzed on sexual abuse.

Some of her alleged victims were her students

At least four of the students attended Alexander High School in Georgia, where the science teacher had worked since 2023.

In the aftermath of her arrest, the school suspended Nichols, launched an investigation, and deleted her profile from its website.

Addressing parents in a letter after the first arrest, the Douglas County School System said: “Upon learning of the alleged misconduct, the district immediately launched an investigation.

“Student safety is the district’s highest priority.

“The alleged behavior is unacceptable and violates the professional standards all employees are required to uphold.”
