DA Seeks Additional Accusers Of Ex-New Hope-Solebury Teacher
The woman who accuses him of sex abuse in 2005 testified that she came forward after hearing of more inappropriate contact.

NEW HOPE, PA — Bucks County prosecutors are investigating whether a former New Hope-Solebury High School teacher accused of sexually abusing a female student in 2005 may have abused other students.
Kevin A. Elvey II, 42, of Yardley, was charged in September 2019 with corruption of minors after a woman came forward to say she was sexually abused by Elvey when she was a 17-year-old senior at the school.
On Thursday, the Bucks County District Attorney's Office renewed calls for anyone similarly targeted by Elvey to come forward. He is currently awaiting trial on the 2005 case and has been suspended from the school since June 2019.
