Not guilty verdict for Neelsville Middle School teacher Cuyler Jay Cornell, accused of fondling one of his students.
A Germantown teacher was acquitted on charges of sexual abuse and sex offense, ending a week-long trial spurred by a former student’s allegations that the educator fondled him at school. The jury took nearly two hours to render the not guilty verdict Tuesday. Facing the charges was Cuyler Jay Cornell, 51, of Germantown, who taught seventh grade English at Neelsville Middle School. Cornell cupped his fingers over his eyes as his family shrieked and sobbed from the courtroom gallery immediately after the verdict was read. Cornell has been an educator for more than 20 years. “And he's waiting on this kid to be his victim? The state’s argument is so ridiculous,” Cornell’s attorney Reginald W. Bours III said after the trial. His accuser claimed…

Three teens testified Monday in the sex abuse trial involving a Neelsville Middle School teacher.
In their court testimony Monday, two male students said that they were uncomfortable with how a Germantown English teacher touched them when they were students at Neelsville Middle School. A third teen claimed he received back and shoulder rubs from the teacher but said he didn’t think anything was wrong with it at the time. “I don’t know,” the teen said. “I didn’t really notice it.” The three were brought to Montgomery County Circuit Court on Friday to testify against Cuyler Jay Cornell, 51, of Germantown. The seventh-grade teacher has been indicted on charges of sexual abuse of a minor and sex offense stemming from a former student’s claim that Cornell touched his buttocks and genitals when he was in seventh and eighth grades. On Monday…
Sex abuse trial involving a Neelsville Middle School teacher continues today.
During his testimony in circuit court on Friday, a Germantown teacher adamantly denied allegations that he touched a former male student’s private parts. “Did you ever touch or attempt to touch (the alleged victim’s) penis?” defense attorney Reginald W. Bours III asked. “No,” Cuyler Jay Cornell, 51, of Germantown, said abruptly, his face flushed red. Cornell is expected to continue his testimony today. A 15-year-old accuser claims Cornell touched his buttocks and genitals and asked him for kisses while he was a student at Neelsville Middle School, where Cornell taught seventh grade English. In his testimony on Friday, Cornell described the alleged victim as an emotionally troubled teen who had a penchant for exaggeration, may have had …
