Erin Travers, 36, appeared in Henrico Circuit Court Thursday for the criminal hearing, where multiple teachers, an assistant principal and a student testified to the January 21 incident.

Based on testimony from witnesses, experts and photo evidence of the student's injuries presented during the hearing, the court found Travers guilty of both charges of malicious wounding and injury by strangulation.

According to a spokesperson for Henrico County Public Schools, Travers was terminated from her position in February.

Travers' sentencing hearing has been set for February 17, 2027.
