CRISFIELD, Md. — A nurse at a Somerset County high school is being accused of sexually assaulting four students, according to Maryland State Police.

33-year-old Samantha Marsh was arrested on Tuesday and is now being charged with 10 counts of fourth-degree sex offense, four counts of perverted practice, four counts of contributing to the condition of a child, and one count of attempted fourth-degree sex offense.

Investigators with the Maryland State Police say the alleged offenses happened between March 2018 and January 2019 with students from Crisfield High School & Academy.

While the victims are all students, police say none of the offenses actually happened on school grounds. They believe Marsh would pick up the students in her van from different places outside of the school before moving them to another location where the alleged assaults occurred.

Marsh was placed on administrative leave from Crisfield High School & Academy prior to her arrest.

Anyone with information on this case is asked to contact the Maryland State Police Princess Anne Barrack at 443-260-3700.
