Ex-teacher at Hmong Academy in St. Paul charged with having sexual encounters with student

A former teacher at a charter high school in St. Paul has been charged with having numerous sexual encounters with a student shortly after he was fired for paying too much attention to her.

Brandon M. Bunney, 41, of Savage, was charged in Ramsey County District Court last week with third-degree criminal sexual conduct in connection with him having sex with the 16-year-old girl starting last year.

Bunney, who taught at Hmong College Prep Academy (HCPA), is scheduled to make his first court appearance on March 14. Court records do not list an attorney for him. A message was left with Bunney seeking his response to the allegations.
