Published: December 31, 2008
A 42-year-old Nature Coast Technical High School band teacher was arrested today, accused of having sex with a 17-year-old girl, the Hernando County Sheriff's Office said.
Timothy Robert Brightbill, of Spring Hill, was charged with two counts of unlawful sexual activity with a minor.
The mother of the teen arrived home about 2:30 p.m. Wednesday and saw Brightbill, wearing only his underwear, lying on top of her daughter, according to a criminal arrest affidavit.
The teen told detectives that Brightbill came to her Spring Hill house when no one was home and the pair ended up in her bedroom, the affidavit states. Detectives say that prior to his arrest Wednesday, Brightbill performed a sex act on the teen in November.
Brightbill is being held tonight on $20,000 bail in Orient Road Jail.
