It is alleged that Bounds touched an 8-year-old girl inappropriately while they were in class on November 30 and December 11.

It is further alleged that Bounds touched the girl on her buttocks and private area while she was standing next to his desk.

Bounds came to the attention of authorities when the girl did not want to return to school following Christmas break, this on fears that her regular teacher would not be present. When asked about her concerns she told her mother of the alleged sexual abuse.

Reportedly Bounds has been a substitute teacher at the following schools: Belleview Elementary School, Belleview-Santos Elementary School, Harbour View Elementary School, Stanton-Weirsdale Elementary School, Belleview Middle and High schools and Forest High School.
