MARSHALL COUNTY, Ky. - It's more trouble for a high school instructor accused of having a sexual relationship with a 16-year-old student.
Kentucky State Police today arrested 37-year-old Michael Colvett.
A grand jury indicted him Tuesday on charges of rape, tampering with physical evidence, sexual abuse and unlawful transaction with a minor.
Colvett was a band director at Marshall County High School.
He's in jail on $25,000 dollars cash bond.
Last month, Colvett pleaded not guilty to misdemeanor charges in the same case.
A state lawmaker wants to make it illegal for a teacher or anyone else in a position of trust to have consensual sex with someone under 18.
