Curtis Boylen Still Has Teaching License

FAIRMONT -- A former Marion County teacher acquitted of sex-related charges still has a license to teach in West Virginia.

The West Virginia Department of Education (DOE) has been monitoring the case against Curtis Boylen, according to Liza Cordeiro, the department’s communications officer.

A 14-year-old accused Boylen of raping her twice in 2005, but a jury found Boylen not guilty of 2 counts of sexual abuse by a parent, guardian or custodian and 2 counts of first-degree sexual assault on Monday, March 15.
