ALBANY, Ga. (WALB) - Audrianna Cobb-Williams, the former Dougherty County teacher arrested for two counts of sexual assault of a student, has issued a not-guilty plea.

Williams is known for a viral rap video she made while being a teacher at Monroe Comprehensive High School.

The high school where she’s accused of two counts of improper sexual contact by an employee or agent in the first degree. After court documents say she, “…did knowingly kiss… and perform a (sexual act)” with a student.

The next step is for the case to go to trial. If Williams is convicted, she could face up to 10 years in prison for each count.

Williams was recently indicted by a grand jury less than a month ago.
