Former Davis High School English teacher Brianne Altice appears in Second District Court Thursday on Feb. 27 wearing a tight, revealing top.



A Utah high school teacher accused of having sex with a teenage student after first hooking up with him in a church parking lot has pleaded not guilty to felony rape charges.



Brianne Altice, who turned heads as she showed up in court wearing a figure-hugging top, slim-fitted pants and high heels, denied the alleged relationship with the 16-year-old.



The boy claimed his English teacher at Davis High School, in the deeply Mormon city of Kaysville, had sex with him at least three times.







At a preliminary hearing last week, he also alleged that he was having problems at home, having recently moved to Utah, and would cut class to hang out with the 34-year-old.



Intimacy followed after an initial encounter in a church parking lot, he added.



The boy then went on to allegedly have sex with Altice at her South Weber home and at a park, between Jan. and Sept. 2013, reports The Davis Clipper.



Altice, hired by the school in August 2012, was arrested after a police investigation last October. She was married but has since divorced from her husband.

In November the boy reportedly admitted to the alleged affair.



The Standard-Examiner reports that her alleged victim was able to accurately describe the layout of Altice's home as well as the tattoos on her body.

At her arraignment on Thursday, Judge Thomas Kay scheduled a jury trial for May 12.

Altice pleads not guilty to three counts of first-degree felony rape charges. The severity of the charges stem from the the incident involing a teacher and a student.

Tolerson also said he wants “something done.”
