(Eaton, OH)--Eaton High School band director Paul Bingle appeared before a judge for the first time Monday after having been arrested over the weekend after an alleged inappropriate relationship with a 15-year-old student.  "We're confident that there was inappropriate contact between this teacher and the victim," said Preble County Sheriff Mike Simpson.  Bingle now faces a total of eight criminal charges.  Monday, a judge ordered him held on a total $500,000 bond.  Bingle indicated that he would like to have a public defender appointed.  Some of the evidence in the case includes explicit messages to the student on a private messaging app.  Simpson talked about the possibility of other victims.  "As of what we know today, we do not believe there are more victims other than the one we have," Simpson said.  Bingle, who is 49, has admitted an emotional relationship, but denies it turned sexual.
