MONONGALIA COUNTY, WV (LOOTPRESS) – A former West Virginia substitute teacher has been arrested on sexual abuse charges.
Monongalia County Sheriff’s Office detectives arrested Brian Kain, a 50-year-old former substitute teacher, on September 12, 2024.
Kain, originally from Monongalia County but now residing in Brick, New Jersey, faces two counts of sexual abuse by a person in a position of trust to a child.
The charges stem from allegations brought forward in May 2024, accusing Kain of engaging in inappropriate sexual relationships with two students at Morgantown High School between 2000 and 2004.
At the time, Kain was employed as a substitute teacher for Monongalia County Schools. He has also worked in similar roles in Wheeling, and Myrtle Beach, S.C.
Kain turned himself in at the Monongalia County Sheriff’s Office, where he was arraigned by Magistrate Nabors and later released on a $25,000 bond.
The Monongalia County Sheriff’s Office is asking anyone with information about Kain during his time as a teacher to contact their Detective Division at 304-291-7218.
