Teacher Accused of ‘Scream’ Mask Sex Acts with Students Finalizes Divorce
Court papers show Brittany Fortinberry will receive personal belongings while her ex-husband keeps sole legal custody of their child.
Former Indiana teacher Brittany Fortinberry, 33, finalized her divorce while awaiting trial on 47 charges of alleged child sex abuse. TMZ reported the marriage ended more than a year after her arrest.
Fortinberry resigned from the Metropolitan School District of Martinsville on Aug. 23, 2024, after two students reported she allegedly sent inappropriate videos via Instagram. An investigation began shortly after.
Prosecutors allege Fortinberry provided alcohol and psychedelic mushrooms to teenage boys, some as young as 13, before engaging in sexual activity. Some alleged victims wore masks from the 'Scream' movies.
Court documents show her ex-husband retained sole legal custody of their child while keeping a 2022 Chrysler Pacifica and Toyota 4Runner. Fortinberry receives her clothes, shoes, and makeup.
He filed for divorce in February 2025, shortly after initial criminal charges were filed. The couple also sold their shared home and agreed to divide the proceeds.
