She was booked into the Tipton County Jail on a $25,000 bond on Friday.
“We believe that it’s borderline a witch hunt on social media and that’s frustrating to us,” Jere Mason, her defense attorney said, according to WREG.
The investigation is ongoing as cops continue to interview the alleged victims.
Parents believe the teacher should have been arrested after she was suspended from school.
“Now y’all want to take matters of it. You should have done that in the beginning of time when you first found out about it,” Bianca Taylor, who has a student in McCommon’s class, said in a Facebook group, according to Fox 13 Memphis.
McCommon is expected to appear in court on October 13.
